This collection of music represents a lifetime of writing, recording and playing music. These tunes are quite diverse: everything from instrumental guitar oriented jazzy tunes, to Rock, Folk and Country vocal tunes. I have a small home studio where I record my music and teach guitar lessons. Hope you find something you like.
Thanks for Listening,

Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
I've been playing guitar in bands since I was 12 years old. I also have been working with recording gear since my early teens. Anyone remember the old Tascam 3340 hah! I love how easy it is now to get your ideas down quickly without a whole room full of gear.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I play guitar every Friday and Saturday night with a couple of different dance bands in Oklahoma and Texas. I love playing in an ensemble and being able to interact with other players. I have just recently retired from teaching school for 27 years and now have more time for writing, playing and recording music. And, I still teach guitar lessons. So music is now truly my life. I have a Roland 2480 which I record all my music.
Your musical influences
Everything I've heard and liked through the years. Instrumental smooth jazz/easy listening as well as Progressive Rock, Country and Blues.
What equipment do you use?
I have been using Roland gear primarily for recording-just recently bought the 2480. I play guitar, bass, keyboards, drums a little banjo and try to sing once in a while.
