I grew up in South East New England played a lot of gigs from New England to New York. I moved to NC and call that home.
This is my first "Solo Project" It is Highly Addictive to me. When I'm not working on it,I think about it all the time.
There's something about staying true to your heart that makes the music & the lyrics come pouring out
I've always been very lucky to have been surrounded by great musicians. We have toured and played out from here to there and everywhere in between.
I've spent the last few years building a recording studio. When I am not in the studio, I spend most of my time writing
There is one song on the cd called "Close Your Eyes" it was written after 9/11. All of the pain inside of me. Lead me to write this song.
It is Acoustic Driven with Heart felt meaningful lyrics
CLOSE YOUR EYES WAS WRITTEN BECAUSE I NEEDED A VOICE:the streets, the faces the, people, the devastated buildings the broken hearts
I wanted the people around me to feel secure & safe again....That's when Close Your Eyes was created.
Writing lyrics that are self-consciously meaningful feels right in this song...
Thanks For listening
Yes, I love to play live!!!
After the sessions are done and the cd goes to press for "Hold On to Me"
Rock n Roll Entertainment Agency will begin booking a tour to promote the new single.
Some of the first shows will be in and around Raleigh, NC.
Any special Moments? While performing in Matrixx we did a showcase in New York at S.I.R.
The day we went in Billy Sqire was in one room, Mick Jagger in another, and it felt like we were in great company. It was an oportunity to see how Larger than life Names live when not in the spotlight,(They are just like you and me).
I grew up loving Harry Chapin, Kiss, Poison, Cat Stevens............
My music can range from acoustic to Rock
Something you my think sounds like ummm-
Jorney, Bon Jovi, John Mayor
