ABOUT

I've been a lead player for most of my career. The most common feedback I get from the many I've played with is " How do you play that?" Like so many players, I've cherry picked techniques from the best but, over the years, have developed a style of my own that's unique. I love dramatic and cinematic flavors and odd time signatures but I also like tasteful, less complicated melody lines.

Influences

My influences, of course, are the legends of rock we all know and love but players like Satriani, Petrucci, Bonamassa and Govan changed my world and showed me the incredible possibilities that had escaped me. I don't profess to be as proficient but I'm a work in progress, as we all are.
