About Me

I was born in Colorado Springs and grew up in a family of musicians. My uncle Eldon was a singing cowboy on the Witchita radio station WIBW in the late thirties. My father was a bandmaster for the 392nd Army band (among other overseas military postings), as well as leading several dance and concert bands during the forties and fifties. Grampa Snow came from Nova Scotia about an hour from where Hank Snow was sleeping in the train station so maybe there's some common blood there. I spent alot of years in bands most notably, with The Autono and The Lazy Spacemen. I traveled to Vologograd, Russia in 1995 to play with the symphony there. I love Russia, the people are the best. I have acted in two films, the first one was called "Security Colorado" and premiered on The Sundance Channel a couple of years ago. I was also in a film with Walter Matthau and Harry Morgan called "The Incident" back in the early 90's. I have a new band featuring Kevin Waybright on bass and Jerry Minson on drums and I've started to get back aboard the indie music train after a number of years playing guitars in various cover band projects.
