    Artist History
    Bear with me, 'cuz this goes back a while...Started out in the late 70's/early 80's as a member of a Buffalo, NY cover band (Lamont). Performed many times with a band called "Talas" and also did two concerts with the Long Island legend - The Good Rats. Left Buffalo and spent the 80's playing in 2 original/art-rock bands in Pittsburgh, PA (Not Another Joe, Dirty Looks). Began to focus more time on writingand started a recording studio venture with friend and bandmate. The 90's brought a move to the Philadelphia area, and pretty much all free time wasfocused on writing and recording.So there it is. Over 20 years of ideas built up andnow an outlet here on mp3.com.

    Press Reviews
    "Seriously, folks, this is an enjoyable listen. The guitar playing is well done, it shows a lot of practice and effort that must have gone into the recording... ...solidly recorded as well, leaving no doubt in my mind that it is worthy of a listen." - Jonathan Sanders, Gods of Music "Very cool. I'm impressed" - Jeff Straub, Texas Hot Radio (Mondays 8 ET ampcast.com)
