About Me
I am a songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, visual artist, guitar teacher, and an all around creative individual who loves music and the people who make it. I love all the people who appreciate it as well.
In my lifetime I have had the great fortune of playing alongside amazing musicians. I've been in bands with people like Al Connelly of Glass Tiger, my best friend Rod Fogarty (too many credentials to list here), Paul Marangoni of Kim Mitchell, Coney Hatch, FM (I also sang in a Genesis tribute with Paul called "Over the Garden Wall"), Mo Black's Magic featuring Andrea Pearl, Tim Malone of 18 Names, The Feast and an Allman Bros tribute band called Revival.I have opened for legendary national bands including CCR(revisited), Teenage Head, Glass Tiger, Mark Farner of Grand Funk Railroad, (for more information on Grand Funk, consult Homer Simpson), Warren Haynes, Medeski, Martin and Wood, and many more.Some of the great people I've shared the stage with include Tyler Stewart from the Bare Naked Ladies, Jeff Healy, Gerome Godboo of the Phantoms, Laura
Repo, Eric Webster, brother Al Webster both from Colin James and Amanda Marshall, Cathy Elliott (my sister "Moving Day"), Shari Richards, Mike Macdonald (MacDee), Ani Difranco,Karen Andrea of Soul Hitchhiker, Andre Arsenault of Red Eye, Rob Laidlaw (Kim Mitchell, Honeymoon Suite), Ford Thurston, The Ike Mccoy Band, Jim Wynne and sat in on the Hammond with The Filter Kings and Last Conservative.
I am cerrently recording with the Feast (our sophmore effort) and finishing up the touches to my album "Substories". My thanks for getting it started goes to Ted Leary, a brilliant musician and engineer. Occasionally, I get together with Jason Durys and John Trehy in a band called Freedom.(Hendrix, Beck, Cream, etc.) It's a great way to blow off steam.My asrenal of gear includes a Les Paul, 1972 re-issue Telecaster Thinline, Strat, Fender Hot Rod Deville, Fender Deluxe Reverb, electric sitar, mandolin, dobro, lap steele, Hammond A-100 organ with Leslie 251, Rhodes, Wurlitzer 200-A, Optigan, Ensoniq SQ2,E-mu Vintage Keys Plus for Mellotron sounds, Alesis QS-7 for mostly Minimoog type sounds, Boss Dr. Rhythm and a boatload of percussion.Thanks for dropping in.
