Don Judy
Bringing you music or something resembling it
for 30 years and then some. Some tunes I've
written and recorded can be found here. Hope
you like them. They're generally fingerpicked, often acoustic, sometimes not.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Playing in various bands, duos, trios, and as a
solo artist since 1970 or thereabout.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Email me if you want me to come play. Or call me. That number's around here somewhere.
