Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Too much for here. I've been around a lot, been lucky enough to play with wonderful people, and have learned from all of them.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Both the band and I play live throughout Northern Indiana. We all love it. It is the best way to see if a song is really connecting. We, hopefully, as songwriters, all write what we know, but the hope is that what we know can carry to an event an audience member may have as well.
