It's not how good sing, but how high you sing.

About Me


Animations provided by MySpaceGraphicsandAnimations.com


Hello and welcome to my myspace!I moved down to VA from Boston in 2001 after getting a job in the US Navy Band. I'm a musician by trade and actually make a career out of it. I'm lucky to have this job and I also enjoy freelancing in many different groups and orchestras around town. I've enjoyed rocking out with Dr.FU for the past couple years. It's always fun to see people having a good time in front (or on) of the stage. I'm also a member of a contemporary chamber group (and Wammy nominated!) called the Great Noise Ensemble . Please check my calender and come out to a gig!
I've performed and traveled to most of the US and the nicest concert halls in Italy, Germany, Holland, and France, England, and Austria. One of these days I will take a couple months off and see as much of Europe as possible. Locally, I've enjoyed playing at the local bars-Clarendon Grill/Ballroom, Whitlows, Auld Shebeen, RiRa, Ned Devines, and the not so local Bottle and Cork in DE and on the classical side-Kennedy Center and Meyerhoff Concert Halls.
Sports are a big part of my life and I'd rather play than watch. A MA native, I'm a big Sox and Pats fan. So, when they're on, I'm watching. I love playing tennis, volleyball, street hockey, and softball. In Jan. 06, I ran a half marathon in Miami, FL. No more of that!I love seeing live music. Some of my favorite places are Jaxx, Kennedy Center, Blues Alley, Wolftrap, 9:30, and Birchmere.Thanks for visiting!
I created my own profile using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too!

The Doctor of Alcantara

Every so often I play a gig where I'm reminded why I'm in the music profession in the first place. It's not that I wonder why I'm doing this at other times because I wouldn't dream of doing ...

Boston

It took me 10.5 hrs to get to Boston Saturday. It usually takes about 8, but leaving at 12pm on Saturday wasn't a good idea. Even though it's been warm and the snow is melting (shoveling my ...

Rock and Roll Fantasy Camp

Somehow, sometime, somewhere, I am going to do this. It's pricey as hell for the 5-day camp, but a lot cheaper for a 1 day camp. I HAVE to do the whole thing. It just has to happen. I will go alone, b...
