About Me

My long awaited album is finally finished and readly for download. It is entitled Twenty Seven and was officially released on March 17th, 2009. Feel free to download the album at my site. It took me awhile to finish it up but I am very proud of it and hope that you enjoy it.......(BIO).......I started playing guitar about 15 years ago. Just the usual Metallica and G N' R and stuff. I played in a few bands at Miller High in Regina just doing cover songs. Side Effects and Longcut were the two main bands that I played in. After that I just layed low and started enjoying more acoustic and folky type stuff like the Skydiggers, Waltons, Ron Sexsmith and Sarah Harmer. I currently just record songs with my Boss BR-8 digital recording studio. I learn songs by people I like and I also write songs. I am also currently involved in a project with my friend Tim Maciag. We are recording some cover songs for an album that will be called "Just Us Doing Our Impressions". Hopefully it will be out by August of 2009. We also started writing some orginals so we will be releasing a double album. One side covers and one side orginals.Myspace Layouts & Graphics @ JellyMuffin.com
