Influences

I played rock and blues as well as country most of my life but starting in 2000 I fell in love with Bluegrass. Have been playing dobro since 2005. My influences are Jerry Douglas on dobro, Lonesome River Band, Blue Highway, The Steeldrivers, Rhonda Vincent and many more, prefer the newer style of bluegrass but love bringing back some of the old tunes as well.
