   About the ralph show
I grew up on the irrigated edge of the California desert, fortified by orange groves, smog and the sweet summer sounds of 1970s top-40 AM radio. Most kids got a car when they turned 16 - I got a Rhodes.

After that it's all a blur...Andromeda, The Avatars, Private Sector, The Sedans, The Boxcutters, (actual size), Little Details*, mostly harmless...and, of course, the ralph show!

I've had the privilege of sharing the stage with some pretty awesome people...some you might have heard of but most you wouldn't recognize (isn't it that way for most of us?). Most recently I've been working with my friends John McGill and Phil O'Keefe on the very first ralph show CD.

I'm still living in that desperate little town that wants so hard to be Pasadena or something like it. The new project should be finishing up soon, and I'll be looking to take these songs out for some fun. Keep your eyes open...

* excuse me!
