About Me

I'm a singer/songwriter from Boston,MA. In October 2007, I released my first CD ~ FireStorm. It is being distributed Worldwide, and available on iTunes and other fine download services. The CD was the culmination of many, many years of writing about my surrounding and observations. The songs are about life. There are ballads, rockers and a touch of the blues. It was a treat to finally step into a recording studio and have my songs come to life. In 2005, I started the project and was greeted by some of the best musicians in the New England area, and experienced first class muscianship and professionalism. When you listen to the music, I hope you agree.
