About Me

I am 37, and have been married to my beautiful wife Robin for 11 years. I am the second generation owner / operator of the Coffee Call in Baton Rouge, La. Coffee Call is a Traditional New Orleans Style Cafe' au Lait and Beignet shop started by my father in 1976. I am also the bass player in the band Zaemon (Ahh, the good old days). Zaemon toured from 1990-1996 playing clubs and festivals, and opening for bands like Pantera, Fates Warning, Zebra and Lillian Axe. In 1991 we released our first EP "Show You My Groove", and in 1993 our full length CD "Swimming In Sensation". Zaemon never broke up, but went on hiatus while two of its members became doctors, and the other two successfull businessmen. In 2004 we got back together for a few shows and released "Collection 91-93" a compilation of Zaemon songs. Recently Zaemon got back together for a ruenion show that was a huge success, and plans are in the works to record some new songs. I have put together a Zaemon mySpace page where You can hear our songs and see some video footage.
