Music has been in my life ever since I was a small child. I grew up listening to records on my little fisher-price record player, and I remember going to my dad's band practices quite often. His bandmates used to let me play whatever instrument interested me at the time...which was pretty much ALL of them! As I got older I took the requisite piano lessons for a few short years, and eventually taught myself guitar, bass and drums. I played in many bands over the years...some were even good:) No matter what I do in life, I will always have the incredible experiences that music has made possible...the talented people I've met and played with, the concerts...large and small, the music-fueled car rides. These memories will last forever. CURRENT EVENTS: songwriting, performing, recording, reading, paying attention...
*ALBUM INFO: "the Dakota album" was produced by Fred Krug, whose patience and focus helped turn my dreams into reality. THANK U FRED! As for the instrumentation, I played everything on the album except for the drums, which were programmed with help from Fred. INSTRUMENTS USED: Fender Telecaster, Vintage 1960's Fender P-Bass, Westwood acoustic, Takamine acoustic, Yamaha Motif-7 keyboard.
hope everything is well with you... I'll be heading out to az for a week to visit the circus house before heading to colorado fair! I will be living in a booth there and learing how to make copper sculptures! I am also going to learn to play the carillon... look it up it's such a cool instrument! anything new in your world?
Tim, was really nice meeting you the other night, too bad we didn't get much time to talk. Going to check your music out online, looking forward to setting up some shows to gether in your area. I'll look up some dates and what not but do you have any particular venues in mind that you'd want to hit? Take it easy bud and we'll be in touch. Peace
i'm thinking we hit up the red door again if everything goes according to plan, and there isn't another freak snow storm that almost lands me in the naugatuck river. ;) <3
