Biography
My biography is simple. I played in clubs, east and west. Showcased many
original songs and recorded albums from CA. to N.J.. I formed several bands , trios, and duos. I Played with some of the most incredible musicians.One of these bands was managed by the same company that managed the Stone Temple Pilots. We showcased our music at places like the Galaxy Theater in CA., and throughout Southern California...My last California band was Lazy Bonz...Again I was in the
company of some of the most gifted musicians. We played monthly at several clubs and we were together about 3 years.
But none of this compares to my worship music experiences I have had. Forming a band called Reign, I played with these brothers for 3 years...Psalm 9:1-2
I also was a D.J. on WMCX Fm Radio in W. Long Branch, NJ
Looking back my influences were from artists like James Taylor,Carly Simon, Simon and Garfunkel, The Beatles, The Stones, Who, Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young, Joni Mitchell, Eagles,Bruce Cockburn,Jackson Browne, and others.
My beautiful sisters were the ones that turned me on to some of this great music.
