Mistakes That We All Need

I've been writing, recording and performing music for longer than I care to admit. Let's just say 20-25 years... give or take... as the crow flies.

In the studio I do about everything except drums. I'm not 'great' at anything, just 'pretty good' at a lot of different things.

I currently front 7 different line ups and outfits of various shapes and sizes and that keeps me playing pretty much year around. I can scale it down for budget-gigs and I can expand it out for the 'Big Show'.

[Though the majority of these bands and acts primarily focus on genre specific cover material, they are all capable of performing our impressive catalog of original compositions, when the opportunity presents itself.]

I have recorded and produced 11 of my own albums (most available here on this site) and I have produced countless other acts and performers throughout my region.

I love collaborating on songwriting. Some of my more accessible and popular tracks are ones where I worked with a collaborator.

Music is my life.

I sacrificed a LOT to be able to do it on my own terms and be happy about it. There are easier ways to go, but I prefer the more challenging aspects of writing, recording and performing my music. I really like the phrase, "A calm and easy ocean will make a lousy sailor out of you." Don't know who said it, but I seem to live by it.
