I play live every chance I get. I have done a lot of coffee houses, churchs and outdoor events
I have been influnced by so many different kinds of music. I think I fell in love with music the first time I heard the Beatles. My influnces are mostly great song writers.
I am basicly an accoustic guitar player. My main guitar is a Martin 6 string, I have a Gretsch Electric and an archtop that I have began to use some. I will use what ever is available to get the sound I am looking for. For the more country sounding songs I used a Fender Telecaster and I think we used a Strat on songs like Something Different and That's How much He loved me. My Producer, Eric from EDB Studios in Warren MI, had a great sounding nylon string guitar, that he played on Fogiven and Heart as Hard as Steel. We did so many different things to make each song fresh and different. For my newest Country CD, Living It Up, we used a Strat a Tele and and a couple of Taylor accostics.
