ABOUT

I’ve been playing music since a young wee lad. Started out playing accordion from kindergarten to grade 6. Played clarinet in junior high. Took vocal lessons throughout high school. Sang vocals in a little band in kenmare Ireland in 2002. Came back to winnipeg and learned guitar immediately and have been playing rhythm guitar / singing since on my own. Since 2014 - I’ve been playing with some friends at seniors residences, as a bass player and backup singer. Played bass guitar and rhythm guitar in a small band of three for a few years performing at coffee shops and various fundraising gigs. Have some experience playing in a larger band with piano, drums, bass, lead guitar, where I played rhythm guitar and took lead vocals on some songs. Learned a lot and now just jam at home playing mostly Steve Earle and Oasis on vocals and acoustic guitar.
