Bio

Here's a little bit about me...

I learned to play acoustic guitar at around the age of 17 and started writing my own songs at about the same time. Been writing and playing since then. Spent 10 years in the Air Force, mostly stationed at Rhein Main Air Base in Frankfurt, GE, and then 2 years in Nashville, TN where I tried my best to cultivate my songwriting skills. I Moved to Phoneix in 2000.

In July of 2006, I returned from a European Tour where I was promoting my self-produced CD, "Why Shouldn't I?". Played 30 shows in 35 days in clubs, bars and restaurants throughout Scotland, England, Denmark, Germany and the Czech Republic. All this during the height of World Cup fever! What a trip that was!

Currently, I'm playing for audiences in the Phoenix area mostly as a solo performer and I've also formed multiple combos including several duo partners, an acoustic trio and a rock/dance band with a team of extraordinarily talented musicians. I/we are available to entertain any occasion including weddings receptions, corporate parties, pool parties, etc. From blacktie to poolside... just ask!
