About Me

Where do I begin. I used to have a complete history of what bands I played with, toured with. How many studios I have been owner and part owner of. To be honest, all of that really isn't important. Whats important is I have accepted Christ in my life. I have a beautiful wife and daughter and some great friends.
In 2004 I was baptized as a Christian and wanted to be able to help reach people with the "Word" so I picked up the guitar again. This time working on chops and theory. I am a big Yngwie, Jimmy Page, and Stevie Ray Vaughn fan so you can hear bits and pieces of them in my playing. And of coarse the recording became a necessity so my years of engineering are coming in handy. Hopefully my music will help people understand whats really important in their life.
More to come..................

Music at a dead stop...............

Well I was hoping that it wouldn't happen, but it did. After four months of endless creativity, and some of the best song writing I have ever done. The creativity is gone.....................
