I play a combination of original and cover tunes. I made a living for years as a bass player, now I have regained my amateur status. My style is a cross between Dan Hicks, Woody Guthrie, and Willis Alan Ramsey. I particularly enjoy the songs of John Townes van Zandt. I also love guitar arrangement of jazz standards and am trying to incorporate some of that feel into my new material.

Lyrics

Those city lights call out to me 
“Come have some fun” they say
There’s a world of laughs and music
A million games to play
My day at work was crazy
The ride home seemed so long
Instead of going out tonight
Tonight I’ll write a song

Tonight I’ll write a song about a heart break
A song about a love that proved untrue
A song to heal the memory of
Hurt that lingers on
Instead of going out tonight
Tonight I’ll write a song

While my friends are on the town
You’ll find me here at home
It’s a new experience for me
Just staying here alone
They’ll miss me at the party, though
I’m sure they’ll get along
Instead of going out tonight
Tonight I’ll write a song
