It all started with me strumming my mother's 1969 Silvertone 319 acoustic in the late 70' s.

 45's and 33's echoed throughout the house. So I was exposed to all types of music. Many moons later. In my teens I joined a band and really from there it exploded.

Big Gigs/supporting national acts/studio work etc. Now loving life Here in the Sonoran Desert were Tommy and I met originally. from here it's about what we want to write, and say, fuck critics, and the norm, but do I hope you listen? sure! it's all about the creative process and the payoff.
