Hey everybody, thanks for checking out my site. I hope you can get a sense of my music and performance style from my videos posted here. My basic philosophy for bringing new music to people is they need something to hang their hat on, something they are familiar with. Songwriting is my greatest passion, but you can't just show up at a venue and start playing songs that people have never heard, because they have no reference for it. But if you play some covers with an original spin, there is familiarity and the audience comes alive and open to hear the new stuff as well as the classics. I try to write my own songs so everyday working people can relate. I like to connect my audiences with real and familiar subjects like fishing, the Wizard of Oz, dogs, birds and, of course, love songs. I also play music for the fans of the guiitar by displaying various picking styles and eclectic musicality. Check out the videos.
