I have been playing in bands in northern California, Germany, Holland and now Phoenix, Arizona. These songs were all written and recorded back in the golden age of the late 70s to early 90s. Will they find a place now? Audiences have been going nuts for them in my new band "Plasma Kings" I think because people are bowled over by actual good song writing. Thanks Chris Speir for believing in my music and helping make these live performances possible as well as drummer Scott Connor who played on most of these original recordings. Scott has played with Yes members Billy Sherwood and Tony Kaye, and Toto singer Bobby Kimbal in bands YOSO, and Circa.Band/artist history
I've played bands all up and down the California coast, Germany, Holland, and now back in the US in Phoenix Arizona! Music makes life worth living, and keeps me sane while adjusting spines as a chiropractor!Have you performed in front of an audience?I played in bands in Holland and also solo acoustic in Germany. I've now relocated back to Arizona, and have been playing with club bands "Wabbit Season" and "Plan B!" Great musicians and guys.
