Band/artist history
none
Have you performed in front of an audience?
No, I just write and record in my studio, in hopes of becoming a song writer.
Your musical influences
Elvis Presley, Les Paul & Mary Ford, Lefty Frizzell, Hank Williams Sr., Wes Montgomery, Kenny Burrell , Phil Keaggy and many others.
What equipment do you use?
I have 1987 Fender Strat with lace sensor pick-ups and a PeaVey Special 130 amp, and several other, electric & acoustic guitars.
Anything else?
I was born in a small town of Colorado and at age 11 our family moved to another small town in Idaho. At the of age of 13, I became interested in the guitar after seeing Elvis Presley on the Dorsey Bros., Steve Allen and finally on the Ed Sullivan Show and listening to him on the Radio & Juke Box; ("Thats Aright Mama" "Heartbreak Hotel" Etc.) After learning a few chords and driving my family crazy, I started playing in some of the local taverns and at some local dances. Our family eventually moved to a small coastal town in California and by that time I was 18 and formed a band with some of my cousins and an uncle and started playing at a local pizza night club. It was there where I met my wife and continued playing on the weekends. After our second child was born we moved to Portland OR and it was there that my wife and I accepted the Lord into our heart and lives and experienced the miracle of salvation and the meaning of what it means to be Born Again. After our 3rd child I eventually stopped playing the night clubs and now that I'm retired, I have more time to write down record and produce the music the Lord has inspired thru-out the years in my studio.
