A Good Womans Love
This is one of my originals, called “A Good Womans Love“. I wanted a male version, and a very talented artist, singer and musician, Rob Whitaker, recorded his version. I love it, and hope you enjoy it too!
Linda Lou
A southern rock song. I wrote the lyrics, and Mark Kaufman performed it, including all instruments! A very talented man. It was produced by Geoff Wood. It was a wonderful experience in cowrites!
What Am I Doing Here
Saddle Oxford Black and Whites
This is a song I wrote years ago, and I found again while going through old writing cassette tapes. I wanted to recreate it, so I had an excellent musician do a track for me. Bart Dietvorst, and I performed all of the vocals. I hope you like it!

Your musical influences
I have what I guess you could call a unique style of music. Have been told there is no in between with my voice. It is either really loved or really hated. Was that a compliment or insult, lol? Was never sure but will never forget the statement. Think it is true. I have played and love many different types of music, and have a great fondness for soul and blues. Raised in bluegrass harmony. My sound is mix of blues, bluegrass and country. Covers are Sheryl Crow, Allison Krauss, Aretha Franklin, Patty Loveless, Bonnie Rait, Melissa Ethridge.
What equipment do you use?
My beloved 1930's Lg1 Gibson and a Breedlove.
Anything else?
Music is a passion I have never lost, and I have a great respect for all the wonderful musicians and singers I meet, and most of all, for every single one who has ever listened to one of my songs and enjoyed it. Thanks to you.
