I just re-mixed and re-mastered all my songs. Thy sound much better than before, so anyone who has downloaded any of my Free mp3 songs can download the new versions for Free also.
Because of the recent economic situation in the world I'm making available all of my songs as Free Downloads, except for the new songs I'm currently working on that will be on my new Cd "Stratosphere" when it is finished sometime this decade, if ever.....So, enjoy!!!!!
I'm a solo artist and should mention that all songs on this site are written, composed, arranged, produced, mixed, mastered by myself and all lead & rythm guitars, bass guitar tracks, lead and background vocals tracks are performed by myself except for the drums tracks. Although I did write the drum track arrangements the drum tracks are courtesy of (Todd Sorensen) from DOD (Drums On Demand) and Frank Basile from (SL) Smart Loops. I'm kind of a one man band artist so to speak. I'ts a lot of work, but it's a lot of fun! and I enjoy doing it!
All the songs titled "Demo" I'm posting will have permanent real song titles when they are finished with a vocal track & lyrics. Many of these songs I'm still working on and will record more parts and some will sound much different after they are completed. I just uploaded them so everyone will have an little taste of what the new Cd will sound like.
I'm a solo artist and write various styles of music from rock, blues, progressive rock, acoustic rock, jazz/fusion, pop rock and a little country/rock thrown in the mix.

Do you play live?
I play live rarely at the moment performing my original music and usually just jam with friends at partys and sit in with friends that play clubs around town. Yes, I enjoy performing live, but don't get to as often as I would like.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Yes, it gives artist such as myself an opportunity to reach a variety of people with my music that would never have had the chance to listen.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I would love to be able to play music as my main gig.
Band History:
I have been playing music for many years and with various cover bands over the years, but currently an original solo artist.
Your influences?
I have a wide variety of influences from my early days of blues rock like Humble Pie, Aerosmith, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd and most of the bands from the 70's & 80's to artist like Eric Johnson, Stevie Ray Vaughn and many others.
Favorite spot?
various places
Equipment used:
I use a Fender Roadhouse Strat, PRS Santana Se, 1979 Takamine acoustic, Fender Squire (Standard Series) Precision Bass for recording. My studio equipment consists of Sonar 7 Studio Edition, Line 6 Toneport UX2. I also used a Korg Pandora guitar effects processor used on the four songs on "Universe" that were recorded in 2002.
Anything else...?
I'm new at sound engineering and still learning how to use this software it's the best I can do for now. So enjoy the music!!!!! I would like to thank everyone who took the time to visit my site and check out the music. I hope you will enjoy listening to them for awhile and maybe years to come as part of your music collection.
