A professional musician since I was 19, I believe in the power of music! I feel that with patience and overstanding, all people can find the Love that we need to go forward in Life. All of the good things in my Life are from the Most High God! The failures are mine. I know that there is forgiveness and redemption for all... As far as my music credentials are concerned, I have toured, recorded and played with a host of known reggae, blues and rock acts. My first tours were with a well known mid-western underground rock band call Euphoria BlimpWorks-Yama and the Karma Dusters, featuring Howard Berkman. Among the big acts in Jamaican reggae: Black Uhuru (grammy nomination), Andrew Tosh (grammy nomination), Wailing Souls, Dub Syndicate featuring drummer Style Scott, Prezident Brown, Dennis Brown, Eek-a-Mouse, Soul Syndicate featuring Fully Fullwood, Tony Chin and Santa Davis, Frankie Paul, Lee Perry, Ras Michael and the Sons of Negus, Ken Boothe, the Congos featuring Cedric Myton, Judy Mowatt, Sister Carol, Sister Nancy, Sister I-Live, Mikey Dread, Amlak Tafari, Tony Rebel, Tippa Irie, Sugar Minott, Johnny Osborne, Pinchers, Marcia Griffiths, Junior Marvin (Wailers guitarist), Winston Jarrett, Jah Big, Delroy Wilson, Prince Jazzbo, Hugh Mundell, Ras Midas, Yami Bolo, Norris Man, the great
Hopi reggae singer Casper Lomayesva, Tony Tuff, Rankin' Joe, Foundation, Leroy Sibbles, Pat Kelly, Norris Man, Daweh Congo, and so many others that I can't remember! In blues: the late, great Charles Brown, Mississippi Delta Blues Band, L.C."Good Rockin'" Robinson, the Blues All-Stars, Harvey Mandel, Sonny Rhodes, J.J. Malone and many others. I also have produced Brazilian bands, Black Maria, Arma de Jah, and Makoto. In Denmark I was in a great band called Wild Remain with Denmark's greatest drummer, Soren Berlev. He was in Denmark's biggest band, Gasolin'! Oh, yeah, I also played in punk and heavy metal bands (the Liars later to be known as Sudden Fun, Killa Hz, Z City Dragons) in England, San Francisco and Canada!

There comes a time when you must stand alone. You must feel confident enough within yourself to follow your own dreams. You must be willing to make sacrifices. You must be capable of changing and rearranging your priorities so that your final goal can be achieved. Sometimes, familiarity and comfort need to be challenged. There are times when you must take a few extra chances and create your own realities. Be strong enough to at least try to make your life better. Be confident enough that you won't settle for a compromise just to get by. Appreciate yourself by allowing yourself the opportunities to grow, develop, and find your true sense of purpose in this life. Don't stand in someone else's shadow when it's your sunlight that should lead the way.
