My New CD: "It Must Be Love" is now available. Thanks for your support, keep rockin!
I feel very fortunate that my father (a concert violinist and graduate of the Julliard School of Music), introduced me to my love of music, and the guitar at the age of 5. Learning basic music theory, which I mixed with my own creativity, I soon learned I had the ability to re-create most anything I heard and loved being able to add my own feel to the songs. I developed my own playing style, which is purely a mixture of all the great musicians I learned from earlier in my life. brbrThough most all of my music must have at least a touch, or slight feel, or influence by some great musician, I always reach into my soul and inner spirit to create something very unique, using my own style which I've been working on my entire life. brbrAfter spending most of the 80's doing the Hollywood club scene with many different bands, I found that I was much happier being in my studio writing and recording my own music. It was like my head was full of ideas just screaming to be let out!
Artist Mission
I'm very hopeful that an accomplished artist will hear my music and want to use my songs. brbrI'm also interested in writing songs/Instrumentals for use in Television shows, Commercials, Radio, or any other media production that would be enhanced by having a great musical background to it.
Music Influences
The Beatles, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Foghat, Pat Travers, Black Sabbath,brJoe Satriani, Led Zepplin, Grand Funk Railroad, The James Gang, Aerosmith, Van Halen, Green Day, The Eagles, Mark Bonilla, and many more!
