I was born at an early age. Not long after, music began emanating from somewhere in my head . . . it could have been a small radio down the hall, I don't know. It certainly wasn't the full-bodied, high-fidelity audio to which I have grown accustomed as an adult. I digress. Brian Wilson is my hero and an intrinsic influence. But there are many others. In the merry village of artists to whom I owe a great debt reside, among others, John Lennon, George Harrison, Peter Gabriel, Jimmy Webb, Jimmy Page and Todd Rundgren. I write music from a deep-seated desire to tip the balance between the ultimate forces of good and evil within the cosmos . . . i.e.: I have no vendettas, no real axe to grind. I am generally not pissed off at the world. Just some of the residents. And I hope that, despite the lilting and ethereal nature of some of my songs, it is clear that my mission is to help make it all better. Change is good . . . and inevitable. Everything changes. Everybody changes. My songs attempt to illustrate that point. Life is a banquet. I would like to, at the very least, offer everyone a few tasty appetizers. Bon appetit!
