I try to hang out and work with as many different musicians/writers and scenarios as possible... not only do I get exposed to a variety of styles, but it's a bunch of fun and great way to learn -- not to mention an essential means of cultivating humility.
Influences
It started as a kid listening to the radio while I should have been sleeping -- my first guitar -- music school -- the road -- silence
I've been learning/playing music pretty much all my life, working at songwriting about 5-6 years, and feel like I'm just getting comfortable with my voice as a writer. Grew up in NY/NJ, headed south many moons ago, been in Charlotte, NC since 1996. I'm an NSAI Charlotte coordinator and active musician/performer.
I'm in the process of cleaning up my MY WEBSITE, please visit if you'd like to hear a few more songs.
Hi Angelo ... Thanks for the add. Hope to see you guys again soon at the Charlotte meetings. The job and travel have been crazy the last few months. Take care.
i'm recording ten songs in ten days and releasing them all, plus three more, on JUNE 8TH! lo-fi, independent, all about the songs and not the perfect sound- i'm very excited.
