About Me

As well as long walks on the beach, sunsets, fine sculpture, pretty flower arrangements and small fuzzy animals I love nothing better than to make music, beautiful music.

I play solo and I am part of:
Lo Slung - www.loslung.com or www.myspace.com/loslung
Coco Electrik - www.myspace.com/cocoelectrik
Bloody Marys - www.myspace.com/thebloodymarys
The WatTz - http://www.myspace.com/thewattzthewattz

If you like go over and rock out with my little project LO SLUNG - you won't regret it. This is where I rock out on the electro tip and love to remix the same......all guns blazin and aiming to create a rocking dance floor stomper.
Here's the link to purchase a bit of Lo Slung if you like
.. it's the album The New Black
