ABOUT

I am primarily a drummer. I have played for over 40 years.
I started playing guitar early on and I am comfortable as a rhythm player in most genres.
My keyboard playing has only been as a "utility" player. Songs that have a critical keyboard part that needs to be there to make the song right: I can usually provide that. Keyboard is my weakest skill.
