I was born on April 23,1976 in Baltimore, Maryland where I lived until the age
of three. We moved to Nashville , Tennesse where I spent my Elementary and
Jr. High School years writing songs and being exposed to many of the greatest
musicians and performers in the world. When my parent’s passed away in a car
accident , I went on to live with my Grand-dad in a little village in Eireland
There I was enraptured by the finest music and musicians in the world.
I spent time with an Aunt in Liverpool where I again was exposed to great English
Folk Music and awesome Rock n’ Roll ! After finishing school I was 21 and returned
“ across the pond “ to my home and country AMERICA !
It wasn’t long before I began singing in Cover Bands to support myself.
I , of course, desired to do my own songs and either Solo or with Original bands ,
I began performing throughout the U.S. and abroad. I have been able to support
myself adequately through music and I never had a desire to do any other thing!
I have fans in every state in America and in Ireland, England, Germany, Amsterdam , and Italy. I am highly respected by my Peers who also happen to be some of my most
Ardent fans and purchasers. It is my greatest desire that my label supports me
On a tour to perform for our troops in the Middle-East and all over the world.
Oh yes , and I would love to play for the wonderful folks in Japan someday !
