ABOUT

Hi, I'm a fresh '56 years but feel nowhere close to that, unless we're talking aches and pains. LOL My main gig is as an automotive instructor and I have been in the automotive business for over 42 years. I do enjoy the whole process of learning new and challenging material, practice, rehearsal, getting the sound and stage set and gigging. Keep it loose but come to practice prepared is my motto. Things are more fun when everyone is on the same wavelength. Playing live is the best and the goal. My main contribution would be bass guitar, and I like to be busy. If a song needs a 12 string or another electric I can help out as well. Always working on my voice but I can sing lead if we feel the song suits my voice, which leans toward the higher pitches. It really helps when singing harmony and backup.
