About Me

Welcome!

I'm 37 years old and have been writing music as long as I have held an instrument. I started playing guitar at 11 years old and learned by ear. Aside from time spent with my family, my free time is devoted to writing music that I want to market. I have to admit that I will post some songs just because I enjoy them and believe other people may feel the same way.

The songs rotate regularly, so if there is one you like that is no longer available, let me know!!!

Visit my other sites, Andrew J. Liles (acoustic / rock) and Bad Android (experimental /rock) as well as all of my varied and talented friends.
