ABOUT

Live guitarist and bassist. Favourite Genre is alt/country; more traditional in concept, but with real rock'n'roll influence. I have played lead guitar in touring rock bands, original country acts, jazz and blues. I've played bass on a rockabilly album (Silvertones, Windsor, ON), Guitar on original pop, co-written by me (Squares, Windsor, ON), Blues with Kim Doolittle (Toronto, ON). I played Canada and Europe in original country rock band, the Cruzeros (Kelowna, BC), and wrote and recorded my own CD (How to Laugh, to be released soon). I teach guitar and have dabbled in classical guitar, lapsteel, dobro, mandolin and many kinds of original sounds in midi and analog recording. There's more, but who wants to read a book?
