About
I sing, play guitar very well. Touring experience in a band signed to a major label. Pro attitude; love collaboration and believe very good songs can come from 2 people working together toward the same goal. I find it much easier to write music and arrange it, with harmonies, etc than to write lyrics from scratch. I guess you could say I'm the opposite, or the compliment, of a poet, or person that comes up with a scratch vocal without any music whatsoever. I have known people to do that well, but unfortunately it is not me. I am team oriented. Not power-hungry. I am driven by the need to be able to write and sing/play a great original song, although I've performed a lot with cover bands.
