SEEKING
Lead Guitar, Bass Guitar, Mandolin, Fiddle.ABOUT
Some have described my music as “Dylan meets Austin City Limits” and as “Unique and Vibrant as Robert Johnson’s blues”. My music is honest, heartfelt and original. A blend of Americana and Acoustic Blues that’s a little rough around the edges. My songs have the downhome elegance of Texas Alternative Country Rock with the lyrical rough edged brilliance of Bob Dylan and the spicy accents of the Mississippi Delta Blues.
Lead Vocalist. Rhythm Guitar. Songwriter.
Written 218 songs, Recorded 6 cds with 2 bands, 8 Solo cds, 3 singles and 1 songbook.
Message me for current Solo Recordings.
