ABOUT
My primary passion in music is singing. I have been singing and playing guitar since I was 16, although on guitar, I am primarily a rhythm guitarist. I do like learning great guitar riffs from legendary guitarists like Clapton, SRV, Joe Walsh, and Nile Rodgers to name a few. I also play keys/piano as well as saxaphone. Meeting and networking with other musicians is always great as you may never who you could meet. Songwriting is also a passion although i always rely on a great lyricist and more or less come up with chord progressions and musical hooks. I have a recording studio so thats always fun to mess around and record covers or original songs.
