Rusty started out as a singer (shouter) in a high school punk rock band many years ago. He taught himself to play guitar and learned how to write songs. He played in several bands in the Minneapolis area including, The Hatfields, The Cactus thieves and Passionfish before moving to Seattle to start a family. Rusty gave up music to focus on his family and a career. But once music is in your blood there's no getting away from it. Many years later Rusty began writing songs again and wanting to perform. So that brings us up to date. Rusty has been writing and recording for the past 3 years in his home studio. And here are some of the results. Rusty released his debut solo CD (Tortured Hearts, Half Truths and Observations) in August of 2007. Rusty is currently working on his follow up titled Talking to the clouds, which should see the light of day in late 2008. Until then you can see him preform solo around the Seattle/Tacoma area.
