About Me

One of four kids, born in Kinsley, Kansas. I moved to Lawrence in the late 70s, and then to NYC in 1985 and got a record deal with the Hoboken label Bar/None. Married November, 2003. I am a musician, solo and with the Know-It-All Boyfriends . I've been playing guitar for over 25 years -- I can play my songs, and I can play the covers I do, but don't ask me to play a solo. PS, I'm not really Freedy Johnston. Just a tribute.
