I am a blues guy by heart, I've been playing for some 13 odd years, I keep my ears open for more of a wide variety of playing but I always fall back to what my heart loves to hear. I have started off in my early years in classes, but never stuck with them, but my peers and teachers have always mentioned that " I have the blues" I am 21 which I take to be quite young in this day and age to have acquired and love the taste i have.

Influences
Ive started playing guitar in my local church at a young age, but always was attracted to music that my dad of 66 listened too and still does listen to. My early influences was everything between Jimi Hendrix to lynard skynard to all men brothers band. My later infuences are pretty extensive, ive been influenced from Jazz artists like Wes Montgomery to Joe pass and Django Reinhardt. I also am influenced by old time blues artists like John Lee Hooker, Muddy Waters, Robert Johnson and Charlie Christian, I'm also in love with Chuck Berry and Elvin Bishop, another one of favorites that opens up a lot of opportunities is little feat and other bands like Atlanta Rhythm section.
