Now a part of Different Skies, performing as a newbie in 2008. Scheduled to play at City Skies 2009 in Atlanta with The Different Skies All-Stars (Jim Combs, Kevin Haller, Jonathan Mills, John Rossi III). Have also jammed with or played on remixes with The Bongo Brothers, The Wina•Freds, Mike Emmet (of The Scraps), Tidy Kid, and Janiece Jaffe. I have a little VOX DA-10 portable battery-powered amp, and will play for fun...or food!
Influences
Oh, quit. Everything I have ever heard, and stuff I only hear in my dreams and my head. I'm not jealous that the voices sing to you, either!
Sounds Like
OK, here are some musicians or composers that people tell me I sound like: Tomita, Leonard Bernstein, Rachmaninoff, Phillip Glass, and Rick Wakeman. Oh, yeah, one guy said I was channeling Yanni! It's an eclectic bunch, so you should listen to the music and email me with your take on it. I will add the names you suggest to the list. So far, no one says my stuff sounds like Wierd Al Yankovic—but that day will probably come!
Born, grew up, flunked music, got drunk, got married, graduated with Ph.D in computer science, got bored, got divorced, trained in soul retrieval, became a Real Live Shaman, got bored, bought one synthesizer, became addicted to synthesizers, now compose at least one song a week, got cancer, had surgery, in radiation treatment, living light.
Stay tuned.
I'm not dead yet!
