I played drums when I was a kid and became a guitar player as a teenager. I could play either one in a band. I am a karaoke quality singer at best, can harmonize or sing backup and I can write better lyrics than I could sing. I have a background theatre and I'm a strong writer- from poetry to playwriting and even speech writing and public relations. Crafting a good lyrical message is probably my strongest suit, on top of being a decent guitarist / drummer. I own a lot of equipment and am great at arranging and setting up all the equipment.

Interested in doing something cleaner along the lines of a Blues Bros. type band, a female-led or male-female duo type band (like Fleetwood Mac), or some other kind of light-hearted and humourous kind of act. I range from "impish and whimsical" like McCartney to dark and cynical like Lennon.

Spare Change
Spare Change Year: 2008 Genre: Pop
I recorded this song in a single afternoon, playing all guitars and double tracking the vocals. My friend played the drums while I played the first guitar track, and we had it done in about two hours. The reason I recorded this song is because I was joining the Navy, and wanted to make sure I had something recorded. I was in a band at the time and this was one of my only songs ready for a solo recording. My style is not normally this pop-influenced, but it was meant to be a little tongue in cheek.
