After playing the bars, nightclubs, Legion halls, weddings and anyplace else I could make fifty bucks since the 80's, I decided it was time to dust off the originals I'd written over the years, write some more and get that part of my musical career going. The music you'll find here is written, performed and recorded by myself. Some of the recordings are a little rough but the songs are there. Hope you enjoy 'em!

Currently I'm playing the Southern Maine area with my band, The KetchFish Band.
I'm playing live again in Southern Maine area with my band, The KetchFish Band.
Over the years I've played literally thousands of gigs. One of my favorites was early in my career when I sang for a crowd of about 3000 at a festa (street party) in a small village in Sicily. It was my first gig in front of more than 50 people and the audience was great!
In my travels, I've played many genre and taken with me a little influence from all of them. I am predominantly a blues player but my originals are from multiple genre and disciplines. I particularly enjoy the music of Bob Dylan, George Harrison, John Hiatt, Tom Waits, Mick Jagger/Keith Richards, Jethro Tull, John Lennon, Hank Williams, Leadbelly, Hoyt Axton, Steve Cropper, Joe Tex, Frank Zappa, Otis Redding, George Benson, Al DiMeola,etc.
Fender Strat, Fender 212R amp, Samich semi-hollow body electric, Johnson Dreadnaught acoustic with installed active pickup, Crafter Acoustic with Dunlop Woodie, Artisan Lap Steel, whatever else I can lay my hands on.
