Like so many guys of my generation, I saw the Beatles on Ed Sullivan and never looked back. I played for years around southern California in original and cover bands. Mostly Rock and Roll but a fair share of Country and Blues bands that hauled our own gear, busted our butts to entertain the audience and got up the next day to do it again. About ten years ago I met the woman who changed my life and today I'm happily married with two great kids. Music went to the back burner when the kids were smaller but now I have more time to play even if it's only in my home studio. I have a backlog of songs and continue to write and I'm putting these demos out to see if I can get some of them covered as well as for the pure personal satifaction. Besides it's a hell of a lot of fun!

Influences

Beatles, Stones, Merle Haggard, Jimmy Webb, John Prine, Randy Newman, Brian Wilson, Bonnie Raitt, James Taylor, The Band, Eagles. Just about anybody who's focus is on good songs.
