Hi...I do a lot of different types of stuff. It's all just for fun and I hope y'all have fun with it as well.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I play mostly in Birmingham, AL, but occasionally in Mobile, AL or Gulf Shores, AL. I play with several different bands and I play solo acoustic/vocal as well.
Your musical influences
Very wide...Merle Haggard to Motown, Stravinsky to Stevie Ray, Depeche Mode to Dire Straits, Metallica to Moody Blues, Glenn Miller to Grateful Dead...lots of different stuff. Those who rise above the rest are Yes, Led Zeppelin & the Beatles
