this music cannot be catagorized as one genre. i have been playing so many different styles for so long, that i do not want to limit myself to one style of music. for years i was playing blues , funk, r&b, and had a burlesque show professionally in s.f., ca. but would always write original heavy rock and roll and do it as a fun project on the side. over the years all of the different sounds of music i have created have now melded into one style.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
too much history. the band is me and whoever else cares to join me when i play live. i have been playing live since i was about 13 years old. i have been through many line ups as a side man, or the main guy. it doesn't matter. i just want to play.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
i play live now in southern california. i live for playing live. i have been doing it for over 20 years and have a natural feel on stage. the stage feels most comfortable to me than any other place on the planet.
