Artist description I am a powerful acoustic guitarist with a rich blues-rock voice. I am a single act, just me, my guitar and a mic. I perform roaring lead solos that are generally unheard on an acoustic guitar. My lyrics are the dark results of a dark and difficult life, coupled with extensive reading of Nietzsche, Kafka, Emmerson, - many of my songs deal with the questions of life. My music is not for children, it's for adults who like to listen to lyrics and enjoy good writing!
