I am a self-taught musician with many years of practical experience. I pride myself with my ability to listen and not overplay. I have spent most of my formative years in bands playing country music however, I have dabbled in some Rock and Country-Rock as well. I am also a vocalist having sung lead vocals for years but, I can harmonize with the best of them!

Influences
I suppose I'd better mention the Beatles; one of my favorites! I also play or have played every Merle Haggard song known to exist! I'm not up on today's "Country Music" but I can be flexible when and if necessary. I've played with a few notables such as David Frizzell and Buck Owens. One of my bands has opened for Foreigner.
