I am a bassist and songwriter from Canada.
I have been playing live and recording with numerous bands for over twenty years. I started out playing all the bars and clubs in St. Catharines and surrounding areas. I have been in the studio four times now and have released four C.D.'s. I have performed live on television in St. Catharines and Toronto, Ontario. For five years I was playing shows in Vancouver and the lower mainland in British Columbia. I now reside in Kitchener, Ontario and have a recording studio at my home where I am currently putting down new material for my next release.
