Pivotal Spark
I've been playing guitar and singing for most of my life. The songs that I write draw from life experience, which makes each of them very special to me since they bring back memories of powerful events and feelings.
I often call upon a couple of my buds to help add to my originals. You'll hear Billy on the second guitar and Steve on drums/percussion throughout the originals on this page.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope that you enjoy my music.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
I'm currently jamming with buds whenever I get the chance and performing at occassional parties.
Your musical influences
Too many to name. My parents exposed me to artists such as James Taylor, Cat Stevens, Harry Chapin, The Eagles, The Doobie Brothers and Jim Croce growing up and it's music that I still appreciate today.
Some artists that come to mind as influences also include Radiohead, Depeche Mode, Tracy Chapman, The Cure, Elliott Smith, The Shins, Trapt, Zero 7 and Snow Patrol.
What equipment do you use?
I've picked up several guitars over the years that I just can't seem to part with, but my acoustic/electric setup is a Takamine TAN15C, a Fender Acoustasonic Junior DSP and a Shure SM58.
