It's the name my mother gave me...

Often. I play jazz at weddings, formal dinners and other occassions. I'm in the staff band at Church on the Move, Tulsa OK. Which is one of the most respected ministries in the world. I quit playing in "club" bands a few years ago to focus on more laid back musical situations. One of my favorite "special moments"... opening up for one of my biggest influences, Eric Johnson.

Obviously, it makes it much easier for "unsigned" musicians to be heard.

Possibly...

I'm pretty happy being behind the scenes, I still get to play with famous musicians and play for thousands of people each week.

I'm into a wide range of music, all branching out from pop/rock guitar. I'd say I listen to a lot of female vocalists. They usually seem to have more intuitive compositions. Such as, Tori Amos, Norah Jones, Chantal Kreviazuk. Really dig Jazz guitarists Bill Frisell and Pat Methany. I really dig the Foo Fighters too, if I need a good tune to crank in my car, I look no further.

Dallas, closer to New York in culture, but still small enough to be like my home town.

Learning is the most important thing to me. Politics, Space exploration, Accounting/Business. Most of all I'm a strong beleiver in Jesus Christ as Lord of my life.
