About Me

I started playing guitar at 6 so I have been at it about 32 years now. I perform, write, produce and record music. Music is my life. I live for it! I've been there, done that as they say and loved every minute of it! I can't stop reaching for that next goal! I play everything from Metal to Blues and Southern Rock but I'm a metal Head at heart. Playing guitar is in my blood and music is my passion! I want to reach out and if people dig what I'm doing, that's the best reward I can ask for! I am working in the studio on several project right now and love to collaborate with other musicians. One is Guitar intrumental groove music which I am excited about! Got to brush up on my modes, sweeps and Arps but that's part of the fun! Keep checking back! I will have some new stuff up soon.Peace!
