About Me

Myspace Layouts by Pimp-My-Profile.com

For 26 years I've been playing many different styles of music. From Country to Jazz, to Gospel to Progressive Metal. Every type of music I've played has helped me grow as a musician and as a song writer. But naturally my personal taste is Progressive Metal!!! At age 10 I started on drums. A friend of mine taught drums at a local music store. I did the lessons for a while, and then I got into the Raiders drum corp. That was a great experince.It wasn't until I turned 16 when my music career really took shape. The day I went to the record store and bought "MOVING PICTURES" by "RUSH". At the time I was a drummer, but after hearing that album, I fell in love with the bass guitar. I bugged my Mom and Dad to death until they broke down and bought me one that Christmas {1982}. They bought me a Kay bass guitar at the local music store. They bought the bass, a small bass amp, and signed me up for bass lessons. Howard Bly was my teacher,who taught many different instruments. He taught me many styles of music, which was very helpful. He had me playing in talant contests and churches. My main instrument is bass guitar.But now I can bring a little guitar & keyboards to the table as well. Still trying to keep the music dream alive, but as I get older , it's getting more & more difficult. As of right now, I'm working on a full length CD. Playing all the instruments & vocals myself. A very time consuming project, but very much worth the effort. A cross between progressive rock & new wave. About 4 years ago, I did a demo CD & shopped it around & got some interest & some good reviews in Europe. I'm hoping for the same this time around with a full CD. And hopfully some interest here in the States. I will also be working on a CD with a friend of mine. I'm hoping to have some of my music on here soon.I live in Shippensburg, PA. Where I've lived most of my life. I live here with my wife Tabitha, my son Casey, and my daughter Bailey.
