Music Style A unique blend of pop, country and folk influences.

Musical Influences Growing up in a musical family was my biggest influence. I believe we are influenced by all that surrounds us. We are reflections of our own unique experience.

Similar Artists Some have said Gordon Lightfoot, or a young Waylon Jennings. Perhaps it's best for YOU, the listener, to decide.

Artist History I grew up in a musical family of singers, songwriters and players covering all genre's from bluegrass country pickers to soulful R &B, and everything else inbetween and beyond. Rock & Roll was the big thing for me in my adolescent years, playing in variou s bands during and after high school and college. The breakup of Victoria Park in 1995, a band I had toured and recorded with for several years, left me discouraged and I was forced to distance myself emotionally from music altogether. At the beginning of 1999, I picked up my guitar again, it was always there, just waiting for me like an old friend. I am currently working on recording a new collection of songs and performing publicly as often as possible. I can't wait to share them with you.ˇˇ@
