BIO


Music has always been a way for me to connect with people without using words. I have walked away from so many recording sessions with great satisfaction in, not only sharing my music with some of my favorite people, but learning more about life in the process.


I have been fortunate enough, in all my years to have worked with members of:


Miles Davis, James Brown, Donna Summer, Diana Ross, The Brian Setzer orchestra, Jeff Golub, Marc Antoine, Harry Belafonte, The Rippingtons...including John Cartwright, Steve Reid, Bruce Stone, Chris Blondal, Mike Hughes, Sven Seaholme, Chris Ho, John Hatton, Bob Conti, Ron Wagner, Jeff Stern, Fred Afshar...


A true master is an eternal student, so I have adopted a firm policy to never stop honing my craft.


The future of music for the next up and coming generation is very important to me. I have enjoyed teaching guitar, bass, drums & piano to hundreds of music loves for many years now...


MENTORS


The mentors and great influences of my musical life have been:


John Vanselow, Fred Benedetti, Eddie Van Halen, Paul Gilbert, Keith Wyatt, Joe Diorio, Tony Macalpine, Richard Smith, Steve Trovato, Lyle Caine, Norman Brown...
