Artist description As a child of the 60's & 70's, I was influenced by many GREATS like Joni Mitchell. I'd have to say she has made more of an impact on my carreer as a songwriter than anyone else. But I was also influenced by some R&B Greats, like Marvin Gaye, and Smokey Robinson. Also along the way I fell for the sounds of Janis Joplin, Bonnie Raitt, Fleetwood Mac, and others too numerous to count. So I guess I have to say I unconsiously, bring a little bit of them into my own style and creativity. It just can't be helped. Most of the time I work alone, but I am meeting some GREAT new friends and co-writers/musicians along this journey. They help me through the rough spots, and help me celebrate the joyful moments in this business as well.

Music Style Mostly pop, but with both a blues and folk influence

Musical Influences Joni mtichell, Marvin Gaye, Fleetwood Mac, , Bonnie Raitt, Tom Waites, Eric Clapton, SRV, Jewell,. Basically Too many to count

Artist History I wrote my first song when I was twelve, and as a graduation present from junior highschool, with my brother's help,we persuaded my dad to get me a guitar. Well the house was never the same again, and neither were my poor parents. BUT we all survived, and it's paid off. I have been published world wide with cuts on Polygram/Mercury/and Mercury Latino labels for Marta Sanches, and Kiara. AND now you can come and check out some newer sounds on the CD titled THE REAL ME which you can take take a listen to here at my site.

Instruments guitar and vocals, and a little piano/keyboards
