Bio
I'm what they call a performing songwriter. I write, play and sing my own music. The next question of course is always; "So, what kind of music do you play?" and my stock response is something like "It's the sum of my influences and experiences and is therefor ever changing"....but in musical reference terms, well, I'd have to say it's my own blend of jazz, blues, rock, pop, and folk influences. lemme see...Sorta like Louis Armstrong is the conductor on a train, and while the Beatles and James Taylor are drinking gin and playing rummy in the observation car, Hendrix watches and pets a cat. I play a LOT... I play all over Southern California, the Southwest, and all the way up the west coast through Oregon and Washington. Just me and an acoustic guitar....though I spent years (and years, and years) in bands, I realized somewhere around 2002 that in order to play as much as I want to I needed to trim down to the essentials - and keep the overhead WAY down - so now it's just me and my guitar and an endless highway.... :^) .. .. ...... .. .. ......

Influences
Just about everyone I've ever heard has influenced me in some manner. Louis Armstrong, Benny Goodman, The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Hank Williams (Senior), Merle Haggard, Joe Pass, Thelonius Monk, The Funk Brothers, and many, many more....all for different reasons and to different effect.
