Some people have said my voice reminds them of Bruce Springsteen, others have said Bob Dylan. You tell me!
I released my CD "Just A Whisper Away" in 2004. I wrote all of the songs, and performed all of the vocals, as well as most of the instruments on that disc.
In 2005 my song "Let Her Fly" was included on a compilation CD of independent artists that was distributed to indie-friendly radio stations across the country. It received some airplay, and DJ George Maida wrote: "One of the best guitar tones I've heard in a long time. Truly killer! Great, great song too."
I've also written and recorded several instrumental compositions for the soundtrack of the syndicated program "Your Brush With Nature," which aired on PBS stations across the country.
I wrote an acoustic ballad with Ron Baker, who produced and engineered "Just A Whisper Away." The new song is called "Still The Best Part." Check it out at http://www.myspace.com/synthignition

Hey Karl! Thanks for finding me! The Replay was a blast. I hope we're able to do something like that again soon. And it was because of the great reception "July" got at that concert that I put it on my CD! You sound great! I love "Drivin' Back Home" (both versions!) and "Let Her Fly". Great song writing and great production! Keep in touch and if you're ever playing out here on the East Coast, let me know!!! AmyP
