About Me

Over the years I have played various instruments. Guitar, bass and drums. I also killed the dog trying to sing. Various styles I cover depending on the mood at the time of recording. I wander.Original member of the Nyne since the 80's. Future recordings will probably be rare with the Nyne as we are 350 miles apart makes getting together to jam a challenge as these are live postings. Check out the Nyne site for a different vision and journey in jamming. Folsom Prison and Low rider I'm on the drums. You never know what the future holds for live jammin recordings under the Nyne site. I've also been collaborating with members of NTNA and current work is being done on finalizing the release of some original studio productions expected in early 2009. So stay tuned. Unless otherwise indicated all songs on this site are solo by me. Enjoy!Keep on Rockin was recorded as a project for learning all this techie recording stuff. So it's work in progress as for sound engineering. Guitars lead, rythmn, bass, drums and vocals - myself.Breakdown was recorded while Scratch and I waited for the arrival of the other Nyne members back in August 2005. Scratch on lead guitar and bass, Very D adds to the backing vocals upon her arrival and myself Taz on drums, acoustic guitar vocals lead and backing.Smooth1 was recorded one evening while chilling after a hard day at work. Just a drum track and me on guitar.Time is limited however new postings are expected in early 2009.
