ABOUT

I am based in Mountain Home and looking for creative connections -- from playing classic country and blues covers in bars to writing and recording original music.

Open to any meaningful musical collaborations. Let's jam.

My main instrument is guitar, and I also sing. I do solo acoustic shows around the area. I'm also interested in playing lead electric guitar in a band setting. Right now I'd like to put together a little combo to do a cool blues and jazzy set (guitar/bass/snare & brushes kind of vibe, but open to ideas).

I have a diverse set of styles and interests so hit me up if you think we'd click.

Influences

"Anything that contains the original energy of joy" - Charles Bukowski.

Classic country (sweet spot is 1940s-70s), real blues, most jazz, rock n roll, rhythm & blues, gypsy jazz. I hate genre labels, music is music and it moves you or it doesn't.
