Band/artist history
I've been playing off and on since I was about nine years old.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
"I like to play live rather than dead when I can. The quality of it all is a bit higher when I'm breathing..."
Your musical influences
At a young age I was influenced by Elvis, Johnny Cash, and the beatles. Over the last decade however, I turned on to Bob Dylan. That cat changed me forever.
What equipment do you use?
I have a very intimate relationship with my Martin D-15 solid mahogany dreadnought.
