I'm just a guy who plays guitar as a hobby. I don't consider myself a serious musician, but I am serious about learning and playing music. My influences are rock, classic rock, rhythm and blues. I'm not really in a band right now, but I'd like to be some day when I have more free time.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Never been in an actual band. I'm really just a student of guitar and music. Been playing seriously since about 2003. Started recording stuff I guess about 2006. Been on hiatus 2009 - 2010. Now trying to get back into it.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Never played out. Just back room recordings.
