About
First instrument is guitar, electric or acoustic. Also play bass and mandolin.
The electric guitar on 'Out of Control' is me in a one pass improvisation over a song written by Fred Brooks. I am primarily an improvising musician that leans towards original music.

Influences
My influences were players like Carlos Santana, Pat Metheny, Joni Mitchell, James Taylor. Lately I have discovered that I sound somewhat like Bill Frisell. My likes are all over the musical map, from heavy groove to atmospheric calm.
I was lucky to study with Lloyd Garber and Hank Monis who helped me work on experimental improvisation and straight jazz respectively.
I am in deep with my long term band mates Fred and Joy Brooks. (Brookfield) but I am looking for a side project with possible cross over between the two. Would like to find a bassist, a percussionist, someone into keyboards.
Equipment List
Good acoustic and electric gear. A car to get it there. Fingers that can play what I imagine.
