Just like any kid of my generation who watched the Ed Sullivan show, February of '64, I was pretty sure John Lennon was the coolest guy on the planet. From that point on I lived and breathed popular music.
I listened to everything from Frank Sinatra to Black Sabbath; Wes Montgomery to Jerry Reed. AM radio in the Sixties and FM radio in the Seventies ran the gamut of artists and styles of music. Exposure to this smorgasbord of sounds was a great environment to develop a well-rounded view of the various genres.
I have been writing songs for many years collaboratively and solo. I have had the good fortune to have my songs picked up by several publishers and recorded on quite a few independent projects.
I have a wife of over 30 years, Olga, who continues to be the inspiration for all of my love songs, and two great kids.
Bruce Springsteen, Paul Simon, Bob Dylan, Jimmy Webb, Bacharach/David, Paul Williams, Goffin/King, Lieber/Stoller, Henley/Frey ... basically anyone that can wed evocative lyrics and memorable melodies.
