About Me

Thanks for stopping by. I put up this page so I could share songs with my friends.

I'd appreciate your comments on the songs; the good, the bad, and the ugly. Keep in mind, though, that most of these are home recordings for demos. The recordings focus on the song (lyric and melody), not necessarily the performance or production. But, I try not to flub! I do take what you have to say seriously.

Thanks for listening!
