I'm basically a solo act. I do mostly instrumentals - my lyrics are "undeveloped", and I don't sing very well (less so as I get older!). At first I was doing a lot of studio time, then more live & open-mic thing, now back to studio. With the lack of performance opportunities, I've gotten back toward songwriting and recording, which is very gratifying, though I admit I really like performing!
Band/artist history
I'm one of those guys who never put what it takes into playing when I was young enough for something to come of it. So now I do it for myself. Too young to garden, to old to tour. So I play for fun.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I live in a very small town with limited opportunity for performance; I've done some open mic-type things, which I enjoy greatly. I've had times where I was really in the groove and brought the roof down, which is fun...
Your musical influences
Pretty vast...I just admire skill and talent, particularly in the songwriting area.
What equipment do you use?
Currently: restored vintage Telecaster, Ibanez RG3, Martin RSD2 dread, Martin HD12-28; basic Ibanez bass; DigiTech GNX4, ZOOM G3; Roland JU-06a, GAIA, & JD-Xi, and DeepMind12D; mics: sE X1 A, sE7, Sennheiser 835 & 865,SM57.

Shredd,
I dropped in to say hello. I tried to play some of your tunes (I always could before) But SoundCClick vchanged the player and I can't even access my own page to see if stuff is uploaded properly. Since you were there I know it is OK.
I'm still hoping you'll gain your well deserved star status some day (For the reason that you gave on the GW Forum) and maybe you will be kind enough to share? :)Hooks for sure, this is very interesting and kind of catchy. Nice bass sound, guitars are awesome and again lots of different guitar textures going on in this piece. Nicely done.
Love those bells-nice touch!
Peace and Blessings, JohnNice sound on this one and some nice lick going on. Rock out brother, great thick sounds in this and the keyboards are great as well. Nice lead sound. Well done with lots of guitar textures going on.
Peace and Blessings,JohnJust came thru from Workstation Format Digitech. New jams are sounding very nice. Lots of different things going on. Sounds like you have been busy. Check out the new site:
