    Artist History
    I played accordion as a child, trumpet as a teenager and took up the guitar in my early 20's. While involved in other careers over the next 30 years, I kept my hands in music along the way. Five years ago, songwriting began, then I learned to record and began performing again. I did cover tunes in the 70's with two different bands, but today I'm only interested in performing my own compositions. To date there are about 120 songs in my songbook. About half of these have been developed to the Demo level. Twenty two songs are now available on two separate CD releases: 1)Let It Begin and 2) On My Way to Heaven. I like Spiritual Blues and Blues Rock because they are all about feelings and the words are about everyday events. My music is about our relationship to the Divine, the energy that animates all life and directs us to our Creative endeavors. After 25 years of helping people work through their particular dilemmas I have learned 3 things: 1) We are all in this together; 2) Love is the most powerful medicine in the Universe, and; 3) Anything is possible, if you work through your challenges and give yourself the chance. Like many artists, my music feels like it comes from beyond me, a Spiritual download if you will(inspiration means: filled with spirit). But I'm responsible for its shape and content and its delivery to listeners through sites like this. I am grateful for the opportunity and I hope you enjoy what the music and words have to offer. I also write books. Published "Mythical Times" in 1996 and have 4 more manuscripts in the works. These will be available on My Website which should be up and running in early 2003.
