About Me

When I was Four, I dreamed of playing and singing in front of large audiences. Five years old, I was standing on top of oil drums singing to the neighborhood girls. 9 years old I started guitar, 15 years old I was playing Cat Stevens tunes in Finnegans Bar and Grill. The newest Album, "The Lullaby Sessions" is out and sprinting locally up the charts via Reverb Nation. www.reverbnation.com. Expect lots of shows comming up in the near future as we get things polished up over here.
