About Me

Brief history of Yowzah...Lived on the island of Maui. Played guitar but there is no real Rock in Maui.Moved to Hollywood CA in 1990. Started and fronted the punk alternative band Methodone Cocktail. Played guitar. In 1992 I started my own nightclub, the infamous "Club Dump". Club Dump was held every Thursday at the Central aka the Viper Room from 1992 to 1994. Bands playing there included Weezer, Kyuss (Queens of the Stone Age), Bottom 12, 1000 Mona Lisas, Wax, Dead, White and Blue, Black Market Flowers, Spade Ghetto Destruction, Seven Forty-Seven (Crank) and of course Methodone Cocktail. After playing the local circuit for few years it was time for new project - "Kluster". Kuster was a power trio and I played guitar. Kluster lasted from 1994 to 1998. Another project I played guitar for was Lunatics on Parole 1998-2001
2001- 2004 I took time off for a side trip to the outer edges of the known universe...
2006 briefly played bass for "Broken PonY" and "Alpha Shemale".
2007- Started the band "Deadly Motor Vehicles". Songwriter and bass player.
2008- Deadly Motor Vehicles got in a major car crash and burned to the ground.
2009- Deadly Motor Vehicles resurrected, played a LOP reunion and now playing w/ Switchblade Kitty!!!
All songs in player I wrote/co-wrote and played bass except "Fairfax Fountain". On that song I co-wrote and played guitar.
Special thanx to Mooney for recording 4 of the 6 songs presented.
