ABOUT ME

   I wanted to start out by thanking my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! He is the reason for my music ability and my creativity.

   I started my musical journey at the age of 7. My Mom thought it would be nice if I learned piano. She played herself and we had a piano in the house. I only took lessons for one year. It didn't last long but I grew up in a household filled with music. When I was 9 my dad brought home a electric guitar and amp. He ask me if I was interested. I said yes and that is when my guitar journey started.

   I took lessons for 6 years. My parents couldn't pry the guitar out of my hands. I started writing these little instrumentals on a cassette deck I had when I was in high school. I also hooked up with some friend and we formed a band. We played most the hits from the radio. We were into Rock, Hard Rock, Metal and Punk Rock. Played in a few bands through the 80's, 90's and 2000's. I also worked at a music store and taught guitar for almost 2 decades. Because of teaching my musical tastes widened. In the late 90's and early 2000's I was in a band called Unforsaken. We recorded a couple of EP's. In 2004 we recorded and released our first album. That same year I released my first solo EP "Doorways to other worlds."

   My next solo project came 5 years later playing around on my Mac Mini. It was a 5 song ep I did for fun. I also was a guest guitarist on a few  other projects. Playing lead parts for friends. At present time I am still writing and recording keep an eye out for future releases. Working with friends and local musicians in the Peterborough area.
