Funky Soul is the only way to describe this artist; a multi-instrumentalist, lyrist and composer; a musician who believes in the true art of music, which is to convey thoughts, expressions and emotions; to move the listener beyond his reality.Band/artist history
Basically, I've been a musician for almost thirty years and have been writing for most of it. I play piano, saxophones, recorder, and bass, and I'm currently working adding percussion and guitar to the list. I've written countless number of songs, the most recent in rotation on KNLE 88.1 FM in Austin, Texas. Currently, I am writing and performing with a band but continue to find the need to express myself in a more intimate manner. My solo projects exist to express what I feel and want to communicate through song.Have you performed in front of an audience?I play live with a band and enjoy it very much. Special moments are when the music is reaching its natural climax and the audience are enjoying the ride.
