Since I really stink at naming songs....they mostly get these great 'generic' titles. This one is no exception, sorry ;-)

I know....what an original title. I still haven't gotten a good one for this, yet.

One man road show....lol. Mostly you'll hear some smooth sounding, laid back Jazzy kind of songs. Once in awhile, though, I get an idea for other types of music, as well.
Band/artist history
Hmmmm...history?? I'm 36 (at the time of this writing)....and since it's a "solo gig" at the moment....I won't bore you with my life's story...ha ha ha. I got started back with music again after quite a long period of "nothing" about 1-1/2 years ago. I compose all the songs using FL Studio. It's amazing what can be done with any of the software "studios" today. I love it.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I used to. Haven't in quite a few years. I would again if the opportunity presents itself. I loved doing it, tho. Live gigs can be soooo much fun.
Your musical influences
My influences have little bearing on the music I write. I've been into everything from Frank Zappa to Bach, with Depeche Mode, Level 42, ZZ Top, BTO and Blood, Sweat & Tears tossed in for a nice mix. There's just to many to list.... For jazz influences.... guys like Chic Corea, Flim & the BB's, Jimmy Haslip, Hilary Jones, Al deMiola, John Scofield to name a few....
What equipment do you use?
FL Studio, SampleTank 2 and a small plethora of synths and FX plugins, and a Triton LE
Anything else?
Anything goes, eh?? Nothing profound or prophetic....just realistic: I hope everyone enjoys what they hear. At the least, I hope it entertains. That's my goal. If you end up taking a mental journey during a piece, fantastic!!!
