Artist History I started writing music around age 10, on the piano, which was my first instrument. Other than a contrapuntal version of "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" which my piano teacher utterly detested, most of my first actual songs were heavily influenced by several years of heavy KISS-listening. Since then the quality of my material has improved not an iota, either in content or in craft. However, I now have tools and technology at my disposal to inflict my sonic misdemeanors upon a realtively vast, unsuspecting public thanks to MP3.com.

Group Members So many musicians have appeared on these tracks I will list the personnel by track. Charlie Crystle and Dave Wike, my former bandmates from Parrish Blue, and Mark Wike are a core part of almost all my musical endeavors.

Instruments Drums and bass, guitar, keyboards and vocals

Albums Harpoon Alley, California's Gone, Beach Sessions

Press Reviews Seriously. If I had something to put here do you think I'd be hawking CD's on MP3.com?
