ABOUT
*Apologies to anyone I haven't replied to. I signed up for this in 2009, forgot about it until 2014, and then didn't log in again for another 11 years.*
I am not a songwriter and don't crave the spotlight, nor am I some old guy still aspiring to be a rockstar or relive old glory days. I have always been a practical musician and have been making money from it since I was 15. I am currently gigging with The Kristi Neumann Band in Oliver and sometimes with Yanti in Penticton.
I am not a songwriter but my strength is helping others arrange their original tunes.
Guitar and bass are my main instruments but I have experience with drum set, percussion, and keyboards as well as conducting choirs and orchestras.
