During my early years in music I was a rock-n-roll musician with influences like Jimmy Hendrix, Robin Trower, Journey, Styx, Kansas, Rolling Stones and the list could go on and on.
From a child I grew up around the blues and old time country. Later on in my educational stages of guitar and music theory I acquired a love for Jazz music as well.
I would like to think my music is along the lines of country with a little feeling of rock and blues. I will however have a mix of country sounds outhern rock, and contemporary music on all upcoming songs. I like to write songs that not only pick you up and lift your spirits but I also like to touch the emotions of love and romance. Yes, loving the Lord as well. I am sure you will find something you like in my upcoming and future songs I have written.
I performed live back in the late 70's and 80's on a regular basis. At this time I have done some private performances and sang in churches. After my debut CD is released sometime in 2007 I will be performing live more often.
There are numerous country stars both past and present who are currently a strong influence. In my early years I was much into rock music. Today I also admire many Christian country artists.
I use a Gibson Hummingbird, a Guild D-55 along with a Fender Telecaster and G&L Skyhawk. As far as amplification and sound equipment I use Peavy.
