"like some combination of Ry Cooder and Steve Reich"
The most recent evolution of my solo self finds me with a guitar in hand, a looper at foot, and a table with a few antiques atop it. I’ve been gathering influences for years now and try and bring ’em all together. Creating a blend of ambient electronics, american roots, free improv, middle eastern folk, and 20th century avant garde.

A good friend who seriously expanded my horizons as a musician and a music fan. It was my privelage to play with you and waste hours in your office talking about music and life.
