Band Members: The best players who I have recorded and performed with are; Jimmy Wilsey and Clive Gregson. In the studio I break it all down myself. From the guitar, drums, keyboards, synths, vintage toy instruments, flute. Love it all. I am solitary and that is just how I like it when it comes to recording and writing. Performing live it is nice to have some other players esp. JCW or Clive! I love you both and miss you both tons.
Influences: Merle Haggard, Frank Sinatra, Gladys Knight, Sam Cooke and The Everly Brothers have all been influences on my vocal style. Pete Townshend, Carol King, Bruce Springsteen, Richard Thompson, Tom Waits, Randy Newman and The Bryants have been a huge influence on my song writing style.Frank Sinatra, Johnny Rotten, Gene Vincent and Pete Townshend have influenced my stage performing style. Of course the one who really kicked my ass was my pal Jimmy Wilsey. He taught me about metronomes and encouraged me to USE ONE! My guitar style is influenced heavily by Richie Havens, Don Everly , Pete Townshend and Wes Montgomery. I am inspired as a song writer by people in my life and thier situations. I listen very closely to what people say. I listen for catchy phrases and funny lines, poetic verse and mood shifts. There are always great song ideas out there you just gotta look n’ listen.
