I play solo acoustic gigs, duos, and full band gigs with some of the best blues musicians in the Chicago area, including vets of top name blues legends' bands.

I'm the editor of Guitar.com, and an author of music instructional books for music publisher Hal Leonard. I recently launched a site for blues instructional products, http://www.blueslessons.com .

In days past I was an editor at Fender Frontline magazine, and also ran vintage instrument site Gbase.com.
