About Me


News!!! October 8th 2006 Athens, GA (day off)
Last Spring I took part in the recording of Love Songs For Losers, which is the second solo record from longtime Bloodkin frontman Daniel Hutchens. I play lead guitar on the record, and also wrote Cleopatra Casto, Haunting Montezuma, and Black and White Snapshots in the Bottle Tree Bar with Danny marking our first songwriting collaborations.
Here is a link to where you can listen to the songs and buy the albumn if you so desire.

Bio
Many things in life are learned. Things you do every day, or just every once in a while. From things you take for granted to things you cherish. Music however, just came to me. It was sitting their waiting in a world with a lot of other things going on around it, and when I found it I couldnt get enough. Bridging the gap between the music I have inside and the music there is to learn is my goal/passion/primal urge.
20 years have past since the early days of playing drums in a M***** C*** cover band. My tastes have changed, I now play guitar (primarily), and I have a the wealth of experience that is priceless and still growing. I have played improv jazz, bluegrass, funk, acoustic, blues, and my personal favorite rock & roll, with a lot of great bands that I was either in, like CubanStack, Breaking & Entering, and Bloodkin, or just sitting in with, Double Parked, Jerry Joseph, Polytoxic, Cecil Penut Daniels, The Willy Waldmen/Brian Jordan Project, and Outformation, and with one performance I can gain something for the next.
For the past year I have been playing in the Athens, GA rock band Bloodkin, and when we are not touring, Danny Hutchens and I have been touring as an acoustic duo.
From my first days back in Maryland to my home here in Colorado I have been playing, and learning music. Bridging the gap between what I know and what there is to learn.
