Why this name?

Belongs to a long line of very fine Southern Gentlemen ... South Scotland ... South Ireland.

Do you play live?

Of course I play live ... just not in public.

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?

Our access to the World's information doubles every few years. You can run but you cannot hide.

Would you sign a record contract with a major label?

Of course ... just as long as I don't have to play or appear in public.

Band History:

Started in Lake Mary, Florida to provide the score for a series of movie trailers ... currently reside in Cedar Rapids, Iowa ... land of the free flute music experiment.

Your influences?

Right now I'm listening to Shostakovich ... thinking about Robert Rich and Michael Hedges with a smattering of Pat Methany.

Favorite spot?

My backyard in Cedar Rapids, Iowa ... when the "kids" are all here.

Equipment used:

Macintosh computers, Roland digital workstation, Emu Sampler ... and anything else I can get my hands on ... just purchased the MOTU MachFive 2.

Anything else...?

Starting work on Huphoria ... CD featuring improve opportunities for Flute players ... finished FluteCircuit, and AguaM ... check it out.

I'm a fan!
