About Me

I've been playing music for about 20 years, & I have a beautiful wife and daughter. I started out just playing guitar, I guess I was trying to become the next super guitar guy... that didn't happen obviously, I've been in a few bands in Detroit, STARK RAVIN', CLUB MONKEY, and EDEN SEED, and received air play on local radio shows. Collectively, we opened for Zakk Wylde, Average White Band, Quiet Riot, Humble Pie, Aldo Nova, and Sponge to name a few. When EDEN SEED broke up, I thought I'd try, and see if I was any good by myself. In 2001 I went to L.A. in some contest thing put on by IMTA (International Model and Talent Agency). This ended up being good for me, because I USED TO BE one of those people who beat himself up quite successfully, repeatedly, and often. Now I think I've outgrown those feelings. (thank God) Anyway, going against thousands of people, some from other countries, I played and sang my way to the finals, and ultimately to 1 best male singer. I am NOT bragging, hell, it still shocks me. I still look back at that as a pivotal point in my life, where I really needed to prove something to myself! and now, from time to time I still need to remind myself I don't suck. I started a band later when I got back, since L.A. really didn't offer me anything. The band Avatar was started and we released a self titled disc through Sonic Wave International for distribution who basically bent us over. (welcome to the music biz!). And now the band gets together whenever the planets align just right, and is still hoping to finish the next release. Also, I've played with HERAZZ in Rocklahoma. Now, I am the Lead Guitarist for Sour Jane, and "This" is gonna be a wild ride!

Influences: Fortunately or unfortunately I'm influenced by everything good and bad ... But I have a couple of good friends that actually really inspire me. My friend Tim is a great song writer, who always influences me. And my bro Dave is the guy that got goin' down this road in the first place. I used to sit and watch him play guitar when I was much younger and then try to play what he played. So now finally, I have the Internet connection everyone else does. And now we'll see how you influence me. But some of my favorites are chris cornell, tony harnell, randy rhoads, nuno bettencourt, seal. gavin degraw, sevendust, second coming, van halen, the one and only beatles, hoobastank, incubus, and most absolutely, artists of any kind that truely convey their passion through their craft.
