My songs are upbeat and fun for the most part, a reflection of my state of mind at any given time....blues-based funky folk-rock, recorded with a 4-track recorder in my basement, all with a Telecaster into a Deluxe Reverb. I like my music raw and uncluttered, with lots of open space and contrast, and to be honest, my songs would be even simpler if I could manage it. Hope you like them!
Band History:
Just me jamming in my basement!
Your influences?
Blues, especially the old raw stuff...Lightning Hopkins, HoundDog Taylor, R.L. Burnside, SeaSick Steve, Black Keys...
Equipment used:
Fender '52AVRI Telecaster (special edition thin-skin) straight into a Fender Deluxe Reverb I built. A Boss RC-2 Looper is used on some songs for backing/drums.
Anything else...?
I was as surprised as anyone that I've been averaging some 50 downloads a month, so I thought "what the heck" and went for it.....now on itunes and all those digital download sites!
