- Tell us a little about your background...
- I left Northern California and moved to the Atlanta area in January 2007. I have been playing guitar for 45 years. I was a "road warrior" for 28 years. I am currently available for work with established, working groups in the Atlanta Metro area. I am available to play fulltime, be it local or on the road. I am into smooth jazz, funk and blues. I have also played rock and a little country. My early influence was the Memphis STAX sound and got into Wes Montgomery and Howard Roberts around the same time.
I started playing professionally in clubs in 1968. I have worked with and shared the stage with many big name performers. I just love to play, it never goes away. I am also a vocalist, singing both lead and background. I have my own equipment, both electric and acoustic guitars. I have also been involved with MIDI sequencing since 1986. I have earned the respect of many keyboardists in my sequencing abilities.
I am also a solo guitarist performing in a "one-man-band" format. I generally play smooth jazz and produce a much bigger sound than that of a typical single performer. Recently, I have been providing background music for wine tasting events. I am available to perform and provide music for any upcoming event(s) that your organization might be planning. Please feel free to contact me for more information.

The Jazz Network is exactly what the title suggests, a place where you get to mix and mingle with those who have not only an appreciation for Jazz but a forum to hear new up and coming artists as well. I've hooked up with so many of my old friends that I've lost contact with over the years here and it's been a great place to meet folk, appreciate good music and Musicianship. What an incredible idea!!
