I play a combination of original and cover tunes. I made a living for years as a bass player, now I have regained my amateur status.
My style is a cross between Dan Hicks, Woody Guthrie, and Willis Alan Ramsey. I particularly enjoy the songs of John Townes van Zandt. I also love guitar arrangement of jazz standards and am trying to incorporate some of that feel into my new material.
