The music train hit me a long time ago, back when I was young and spry. I played the mandolin, a little instrument with a big sound and a big heart... I played bluegrass and classical, and then I gave it up to play guitar and play rockn'roll. I have always had the need to play as many instruments as I could get my hands on, and record my music with whatever gear I had lying around. I started with the classic four track tape recorder in my bedroom and then moved into a transformed bullet-making shop behind my parents house. I have proceded to fill the place up with computers guitars organs, drums, amps, pedals, microphones and lots of love. My newest songs show the culmination of my journey as a songwriter, producer, and player thus far.When I really break it all down, I am a a person who loves music and who loves life and who loves God, the giver of all good things...I am working on a new, solid album of songs and am very excited!
