ABOUT

9 Tracks & video can be heard/viewed on -- on 's search field, type: Joseph Michael Rigney

Tried to share the link on here, but i guess this site doesn't allow for that.......unless i just failed to discover the correct way to share a link on here, which would be typical & entirely possible - However, it did allow me to share the link for same be video that is on the my profile - Video was a spontaneous clip of me still learning how to use loop modulator pedal & is came 3 years prior to the 9 songs represented on the profile
