ABOUT

I'm an experienced singer/songwriter and frontman looking for a new band after moving from Washington State. Before that, I was frontman and primary songwriter for the blues/swing band Idle Hands for 6 years. I'd like cool people who want to gig, write and enjoy. My fondest wish would be to put together a swing/blues combo with horns and standup bass to write originals, play around the Midwest and record.
