ABOUT

Looking to collaborate with other musicians who are interested in writing, recording and live shows.

Started a lifelong musical journey on Piano & switched to Guitar at an early age. Vocals with Guelph youth choir & have continued playing & learning ever since. I've spent 95% of my time on guitar.

I’m not capable of covering lead vocals anymore.

Have written many instrumental electric songs & recently (15-20 years) concentrated on writing many acoustic only music as well.

Effects- collecting for decades & kept them all except the Fenders

Lots of microphones, stands etc.

Frankly I want for nothing

But… I don’t buy vintage stuff, I get ‘em new. They become vintage after 40 years don’t they?
