I’m primarily lead guitarist but I play just about everything. I’ve played professionally since I was 18 years old and until about 5 years ago. Im 40 now. I probably averaged about 1 or 2 gigs a week over that time period but some years I played as much as 3 or 4 gigs a week on average. The last band i played in was Crooks Carnival which was a band I put together and led. We played everywhere in LC until OBs hires us as their house band in an agreement that we wouldn’t perform at any other venues in LC. The band was together from around 2008 until 2014. Since I’ve invested in learning production and recording and that’s pretty much all I’ve done in the last 4 or 5 years. I have a home studio set up and Produce for others here and there but mostly my own music because I don’t seek out for production work. I’d say that I’ve brought my production skills to a level that I wouldn’t hesitate to sit down and take control in any professional environment and get to work. I’m not seeking any particular Avenue but I am always interested in any kind of collaboration and relationship with other musicians.

Influences
Blues, the whole spectrum of rock music, I love soul music and classic R&B and that tends to be what comes out when I’m writing a lot of the time. Now and then I’ll get on a 90s rock run and write 4 or 5 songs that should have been written in the early 90s lol. It’s still the whole of my rock playlists.
