All Little About me...
My musical Journey started in 1961 at the age of ten. I learned to play the ukelele in school and performed on the Lowell Showboat. I soon graduated to the guitar and it was Music Forever. I played with some local bands: The Laymen, The Ju Jus, The Boy friends, Tanglewood, Ronnie Fray Band, Dirk Rivers, FoxFire and Natchez Trace.
I recorded a few singles along the way and a couple solo projects which did pretty good locally. I recorded a record with The Ju Jus and had a single with Natchez Trace.
Currently I am working the solo gig again where I can play all my own songs.
Some of my musical influences are the obvious; Beatles, Badfinger, James Taylor, and Dan Fogelberg.
Music I like to listen to include: Jelly fish, Klattu, McCartney, Eagles, Crosby, Stills & Nash, Bee Gees, Nazz and anything with good vocals.
Some of the instruments I play are guitar, bass, a little piano and a little of the drums.
I'm currently recording songs with some friends and hope to have a cd out this winter. I'm also writing a book on my travels through this musical maze. (Don't worry, the names have been changed to protect the guilty). I am also working on a Rock Opera.
Hope to see you all soon, be sure to check out my schedule! (Laid back and original)
I guess I'm busier than I thought, I better get back to work!
