I enjoy any top-flight musician, no matter the style of music they play. Past influences have included Andrea Segovia, Chet Atkins, Jerry Reed, Mason Williams, John Hartford, Glen Campbell, Pat Metheny, Andeas Vollenweider, Paco de Lucia, Bela Fleck, Brad Paisley, Will Ray and the Hellecasters, Strunz and Farah, Liona Boyd, and many others.
Ultimately, influences merely point the way to the process of discovering your own voice and style.More important than any influence is every hour you devote to mastering your instrument.

Hey - Just wanted to drop you a quick note and invite you to an Acoustic / Singer-Songwriter Open_Mic at Jake's (in Bloomington) every Tuesday evening. A sign-up list is put out at 7pm, and performers start playing at 8pm; PLUS, "Bands" will also be welcome to play and have 45minutes to perform (two slots, starting at 11pm with 15min's to set-up & take-down = 1hr.total). Great opportunity to work on new material. We are working on having a "feature" night(s), at venues in Bloomington, Indy, Louisville, and even Nashville (TN) for the best performances ,,, Hope to see you there ! Scott-e-B.
