Hi, here's my bio. I love reading the artist bios, my favorites are the ones written by the artists themselves, but they write them in the 3rd person so that you think someone else spent countless hours writing about this person that is so spectacular....yuck.
I put on a live looping show, if you don't know what that is, here's a nutshell version, I play guitar, I push a button with my feet, the guitar keeps going, I play bass, push a button with my feet the guitar and the bass keep on going, and so on and so forth, I also loop my vocals, harmonica and random percussion things. It's the musical equivalent of balancing plates on sticks, I'm basically a 21st century sideshow.
I started playing music in college at the University of Missouri , I had a band my junior year called "bronwen rae", and then started a band called “timmy likes to fish” the summer before my first senior year. We played together for a few years, and broke up in October of 1999. In January of 2000 I played my first solo show. I had a day job that I hated until September of 2001, and I've been doing the music thing full time ever since. I've sold just over 7,000 copies of 3 cd's that I've produced (remember who you are (2002), indian summer (2004), live at the hi ho (2005)), and I'm working on my 3 rd studio album right now.
I've gotten the chance to play with some great local, regional and national bands in the past, some of which are: Sheryl Crow,Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds,Michelle Branch, Cary Pierce, The Pat McGee Band, Better Than Ezra, The Samples, Cowboy Mouth, Michael Glabicki, Ari Hest ,Shaking Tree,Trippin Billies, GB Leighton, Pomeroy, Umphrey's McGee, Panoramic Blue, Dazy Head Mazy & Mission 19.
I love playing live music, I do about 200 shows per year at colleges, fraternity parties, bars etc…. When I'm not playing live or recording I'm probably hanging out with my wife and our 2 dogs. |
