I'm a single player just doing this for fun. Some of the songs I've included are recent and some from days gone by. Some are about new loves, some from old and some just about life in general. My newest love (and source of great inspiration) is my three year old daughter, Katrina and her mother Natasha. I'd welcome your comments and constructive advise and PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO VOTE.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Did the Rock Band for a few years followed by open mic's.Mostly just play to write and record now and play for friends and family. Course if Kenny, Paul, Rod or any of the others would like to jam, I'd be up for it.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Used to... too many years ago to count.
Your musical influences
Where to begin? Dorsey, Holiday, Rod Stewart, Beatles, Eagles, John Prine, Kenny Loggins, Jimmy Messina, the rain, my daughter, my wife, my friends, Peter Pan....
What equipment do you use?
Tin cans, water bottles, spoons....Roland, Korg, Alesis,anything affordable and trained to play
Anything else?
Kenny Loggins was once asked how he could write so many good songs. He answered that years ago, he gave himselfpermission to write crap... we just never hear those. I give myself the same permission.
