I love music. I've been playing guitar since I was 10 years old and along the way I sang everything from old folk songs to rock and blues.Today I make a living playing a mix of Folk/Bluegrass and Celtic music venues around the US. I write a lot of the music I sing and I play banjo, guitar and harmonica. I have endorsement from Larrivee Guitars.

I've been making a living by performing since Jan 2000. I've released 10 albums, 9 of which are still in print and playing on broadcast radio around the world. I work with a band sometimes and a solo. I play for Folk/Bluegrass events, as well as Celtic and sometime Civil War history events.

Last year, I played over 150 shows, in fifty cities, in a dozen states. I love playing music but I love being home in Dallas TX - so I try to keep my travels short.

My Folk/Bluegrass heroes are Doc Watson, Ricky Skaggs, Tony Rice, Norman Blake - but I love Bill Monroe, J.D.Crowe and Flatt and Scruggs. I'm also a fan of Allison Krauss.

I love acoustic guitar and banjo. I play with fiddle, mandolin and button accordion in the band as often as possible and of course bass (preferably upright).
