I work mostly by myself these days, but I would love to find someone to collaborate with.
Why this name?
I would be a has-been by now if I ever was anybody, in other words a Wouldbehasbeen.
Do you play live?
I live in Temecula CA. It's kinda an upper-desert region, ,hot in the summer and cold in the winter .I've played played bass with a few bands here but nothing serious.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I think it opened up a world of music to the listener, and screwed the music executives that haven't figured out how to work with it.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Maybe, but any dreams I had of being Americas next Idol are long gone. I would like to be a good enough song writer to have a popular band or Artist record my songs.
Band History:
I was sitting on my front porch in Bakersfield playing my guitar, and my neighbor said, "Hey, you want to play some music ?" The next thing I knew I was playing bass in some of the seediest bars in Bakersfield. I moved to the Sierras and played with the same band for about 15 years called The Rattlers. We played fairs, clubs, weddings and bars from Bishop to Tonopah.
Your influences?
Everything from the Beatles, Eagles, Pink Floyd, Bruce Springsteen, and Tom Petty to Merle Haggard,Dwight Yoakam and Willie Nelson.
Favorite spot?
My favorite spot is the Eastern Sierra Mountains but I also like New York City.
Equipment used:
I use a Martin acoustic guitar quite often. I also have a Fender acoustic, and a Telecaster I use on some songs. For recording I use a Tascam DP01-FX/CD. I really need a better keyboard, right now I'm using Casio WK-3000 and unfortunately, it sounds like it .
Anything else...?
Maybe later
