A house concert you've arranged to play while you sit in a comfy chair by the windowsill, drink yerba mate and write about questions, dreams, fears, and your experiences on planet earth
About me : I’m 6’1’’, a Sagittarius, grew up in Montana, have been playing guitar for about 14 years, and writing songs for 11. Sometimes I play every day for months, and sometimes not at all for months. That's actually one of the things I really enjoy about music at this stage, the lack of pressure, internal or external. However it happens, I love getting out of the way enough for a song to be birthed into our crazy world, as perspective and art and a teacher of what's really inside.
I also really love performing, though that too comes and goes in phases. If you’ve ever been to a show : thank you! If not : thanks in advance, and come on out. I'll keep you posted via this website.
I've two CDs out : This Time Around, a solo acoustic album from 2002, and Mercy, a six-song EP with a full band. I highly recommend you buying heaps of both of them.
If you’d like to know more about where I’m playing and whatnot, check out this page . . . or shoot me an email to see if I'll be in your 'hood soon. I love getting emails from fellow lovers of music I’ve never heard from before. Unless you're that "enlarge your penis she wants it!!!!" guy; if you're him, stop writing me, please.
Thanks to everyone supporting their local music scenes, and most importantly for doing the good work you do on here on our planet. We need it!

Chicks dig scars, everyone knows that, right? Meet Severence DeSnappio, a man who creates ‘fake’ injuries for desperate clients. He’ll get you a stab wound, shot gun blast, snowboarding injury - but a bite from a great white shark?
Set in Miami, Chicks Dig scars is a lyrical, Lynchian mix of dream logic and hard boiled detection.
I really wanted to play "a girl like you" for someone today. it would have been the perfect moment. I was hoping it was here because i didn't have it on me. Damn!
Liam, oh sweet Liam. Shall I count the ways miss you? . . . . Uhm, I cant think of any, but im sure there is at least one. Send me your big city contact info. Love ya bud.
Things are pretty good here too. I am staying busy with the lawn company and about to start back teaching. Went to Denver about 5 months ago and did tons of hiking. You have to love the outdoors. You should really plan a trip out to Indiana sometime. I know we don't have much to offer, but you can say that you have been here then!!!! =) Any new CD's coming out?
Hey there. How are things going? Long time no talk. Have not been out to Kallispell since Kelly sold the place. Where are you these days? Planning any trips?
