I've been a performer as long as I can remember – first concentrating on acting, and now adding music to the mix. I released my self-produced debut CD in '05; 15 lyrical little stories ranging from quietly acoustic to full-band, highlighting passionate, dynamic vocal expression and intense, percussive guitar technique. My songs tend toward slice-of-life stories about love, life, laughter, and loss. It's pop-folk, infused with organic emotion and soul.
MUSIC NEWS!
* My new album, a recording of a live concert from September 2008, called, "Favorite Hymns - Live!" features all acoustic hymns and other spiritual tunes. The album is now available at CD baby . There is no formal release concert date set yet, but I'm working on it! In the meantime, I'll do some of the songs whenever I have a gig.
* Also, I'm now a member of Concerts In Your Home, and would love to be hired for your next House Concert!
