ABOUT

Singer/songwriter/rhythm guitar- can sing in pretty much any style.
Had severe health problems in 2000 and had to stop playing completely in order to rehabilitate. Began playing again in 2014, and recently began writing again. Looking for people to write and record with after May 15th.
There is a plan and a vision in place: Looking for people who are not afraid to be talented and use their gifts; not afraid to succeed as a team, but have also found out how not to be moody, arrogant and introspective. No divas, please. That only hurts the process.
The intention is to make good music- the kind WE want to listen to, and then record it- either here, or in studio, then aggressively market and sell or perform it.
Let's talk, discuss, play, see what happens and what goes from there.

Influences

A child of the 60s and 70s, 80s, mostly. I grew up listening to my older siblings records, and learning songs and styles from then, so my tastes are very broad. From Bach to Skynyrd and all points in between. Open to trying about anything if it's music and we're passionate about it.
