This is my happening and it freaks me out!

About Me

I am the original Sinner in the Pete Droge band -starting from 1993 when we met in Portland,OR. Originally from Virginia, got my music legs in San Diego and Los Angeles and kept walking, making my way north. I made 3 solo records and 5 records with pete - all that touring made me just want to stay home and make rock in the comfort of my own home- now on an Island in the Puget Sound - co producing records- writing songs, painting, breaking tile and putting it back together. I had a cameo in the movie "almost famous" singing with Pete Droge and I played a folk singer in the worst made for tv movie ever made about Roseanne Barr. If you ever saw the movie "stone cold" and wondered who sang the big rock song "fatal kiss" while brian bozworth's character was riding his bike across a big open sky - well that was me - and the fans of that 1990 biker film still contact me all the time about that song... and so it goes - I am a vegan and would rather pet an animal than kill it, skin it or eat it - call me crazy.
I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
