About Me

These days, mandolin. Irish music. You can see me at 'Irish' Billy Briggs' Tir na nOg Pub performing solo, with Tom Glover, John O'Neal and the Sunday Seisun Singers. Wednesday and Friday nights I accompany Tom Glover on mandolin. Saturday nights I play acoustic guitar and sing Irish, rock and country songs. Sundays I host the Sunday Seisun, open to all musicians with a love for Irish music.Please enjoy my oh-so-abstract lyrics and qasi-emotional delivery. Enjoy the peaks and valleys of my multi-colored construction papered arrangements! Look forward to more random interpretations of solipsistic hallucinations. Now, all parts made in the USA!"Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart.....He who looks outside, dreams. He who looks inside, awakens," Carl Jung said that."Every great religion starts with a murder," I said that.

The Outlaw

The Outlaw rides a speckled horse And squints a smile as the sun kites upward Everyone remembers the name he carries It sticks on the tongue like a frozen cube The daylight lifts his boyhood dream...
