About Me

Born and raised in Minneapolis, I ended up in LA after quitting a Top 40 cover band. We were doing the hotel & casino curcuit nationwide. I swear, my personal 3-drink-a-night minimum became a drink-til-I-dropped maximum. So I bailed. Soon, I met my wife to be out here, and she puts up with this music thing of mine. However, I put up with all the stray cats and dogs she brings home. She claims they follow her. Yeah, right. Our 6 year old daughter is the true light of our lives. Parenthood is the most fantastic, loving journey I have ever known. I keep busy with parenthood adventures, songwriting, guitar, piano, home improvement projects that never end and some that never get started, dreaming of playing golf every weekend but in reality it's like, what? Once a year? My current thrill is finally putting an all-original album together with my good friend Charles Molinari. We have the basic tracks finished and hope to release the CD this spring. Our band, THE GALAXIES, has a website here at myspace at: www.myspace.com/thegalaxies
