About Me

A long time ago the universe was without form. Hot gases cooled, coalesced, and formed stars and planets.Then the dinosaurs showed up but they got too fat and died.Small rodents came out of hiding and evolved into Homo Sapiens, one of which started making experimental music in the 1980's using found objects, second-hand insturments, and toys.After many years in bands playing everything from folk-rock to psychedlia he is back to playing with toys and junk and posting it for the world to hear.
