No band...just me and my studio stuff. Local group called Rogue River Jam is a band I am in at this time.
I have been writing music since I was a teen. I have always been involved with music in one way or another. In a few bands and worship teams. Lead worship for a women's ministry for years and love to just jam. I will always be involved in music. Guitar is my main instrument but I use a synth a lot in developing my music.

Story behind the song
I had received a letter and it was and apology from my father for his choices. I did not have him around since I was a teen till I was 40. He was dying of lung cancer and had a short time to live. My siblings and I were there to support him till the end........it was very healing for all of us.
Lyrics
After all these years You'd think I'd be prepared To sort out all the shame in your letter You'd think the years would be A healing salve for me And it could make a change for the better After all these years Your body fails you now It's stopped you in your tracks And made you look back to find me To say the things unsaid Heal a conscience that had slept Awakened by the dread of your destiny After all these years You seek my understanding I tried to fiind the cause You saw us as demanding with all your fears and flaws You gave up on the family you gave up on me Embraced a bottle that you thought would set you free. I'm glad my value was not placed within your hands But given to a God who really understands I'll always be your daughter You'll always be my dad you’re the only one I had all these years you’re the only one I had for all these years I guess for you and me there’s not much left to gather And you think it wouldn’t matter…after all these years.
