About Me


This profile was edited with Thomas' Myspace Editor V3.2b
Well the music thing goes like this... I've played in about a zillion bands. Covers to Originals. Rock to Pop, Jazz to Blues, R&B to Funk, Alternative to Country to Americana ... just to name a few!!!! Since arriving in San Antonio, I've played with Facelift, Skunkweed and Humanimal. Started a few bands like Aurora Boring Alice and the Dave/Maestro/Dez show and Country Fried Pickles (short lived). Currently playing with a slew of musicians to include: Mark Walker and Michael Morales (POP), Ashlee Rose and Katherine Dawn (Texas y'allternative), Joey Fender and the 55's (blues, rockabilly with a punky twist), and support my friends like Paige Strohman (Children's music), Nancy "Firefly" Brundrett, Jim Murray and The Rolling Faith tour, Rick Miller and DJOB ... I also love to sit in (on bass) with The Dog Men Poets (funk), and all offshoots of that band and many others (too many to mention here) ... The latest project ... I will be playing with Alexis Anthony and Laura Marie .. named "ELLE" (originals and covers). I really enjoyed playing with Skunkweed (9 years) and Humanimal (1 year), but it's time to move on. I also teach guitar, write music, arrange for artists, do studio sessions and play the bass, keyboards and dabble with percussion. But bottom line is I'm a guitar whore. Hire me and I won't let you down.As for my life, I have lived in Texas from 1993-2000 and from 2003 till present. I really dig it here. I was born and raised in NY and joined the military (USAF) at a young age. I seem to have gotten around the states pretty well and did some overseas time. In the process, I've had many different careers besides music (Cop, Pharmacy Tech, Private Investigator amongst a few)... Right now I'm enrolled in school at St. Philip's) and have the job of "college boy" ... and I'll continue to do my music. Hit me up and be a friend. Peace...
