About Me

Creating music is a magical experience for me. My early attraction to acoustic instruments, especially guitar and piano, encouraged a warm and intimate connection with music. When I later acquired a vintage Fender Twin Reverb everything changed. A passion for Hendrix and further exposure to artists such as Wes Montgomery and Miles Davis encouraged the study of technique to facilitate expression. Bob Dylan has remained a constant source of inspiration.My dream is to become larger than life itself, to transcend myself into the bliss of music...to do what could not be done before...to stay and feel more connected....to dream....to love....to laugh....to live forever through music! Question your reality, look past the illusion and into your heart. Sincere thanks to my family, friends, teachers, and all the musicians in my life for your counsel and love along the way. Work for Peace and Harmony everyday....forever grateful...Will =) MySpace Music Backgrounds by Iron Spider
