About Me

I started playing the guitar when I was ten years old and singing and playing with bands since I was twelve.Now at the age of fortyfive I've found my desire to play and write music has never been stronger.When you are a musician you just dont turn it on and off.It is something you have to do,something you think about everyday, It is a part of you. Although not everyone is lucky enough to make a living and raise a family as a musician,I feel it dosen't make you more or less of a musician either way. It is the desire and unconditional love for music that counts. I always thought of my page as a audio and video scrapbook.I feel it is important to know where you have been...so you have a better idea of where you are going. I have no regrets with anything other then buisness moves and bad contracts,But thats really not about the music only the music buisness. People come in and out of your life like a revolving door,but the time spent with band members and the music that was created in that time will never be again.I cherish them all... that is why I put a little bit of everything I've done on my page. My love for the guitar which started it all for me has come back to bless me. I've studied classical guitar for twelve years from the great jazz and clasical guitar player Peter Prisco in the 80's to 90's.After a long break from it I've picked it up and can't put in down.I play every day and set up goals for myself to improve.Its a great feeling to be playing music that was written over 300 years ago by composers like Bach,scarlatti,weiss,sor,handel and more. My song writing has always been very important to me.Which is why I played mostly in original bands all my life. To create something that is truely yours....words...your music... and touch people is a great feeling. I've revamped my studio and I'm in it every night and very excited about the new material I am writing.So expect to hear alot of new music from me in the future. In closing I'd like to say thanks for reading hope you enjoyed my music from my past and present and God Bless. Cities live at lamours
