So I guess this is where I welcome you to the site...so yeah....welcome!  Usually on a site like this, the introduction would be in 3rd person...but I'm only one person, so it would feel like a lie. 

Who am I?
I am a guy who bangs on a guitar and writes words...this activity sometimes results in what I call "songs".  I am lucky enough to be inspired daily by my wonderful family, and though I still have to work for a living, I finally have time to devote to music.  I'm not exactly sure what I am doing, but that's really how I like it...

I should say up front...I am first a writer - I write all kinds of stuff.  Music is one item in the writers pallet that gives somebody with my attention span the ability to create complete, coherent work.  I am dividing my writing time currently between a few loosely organized projects - let's just call them: Love Thy Self, Love The Children and Love Thy Neighbor.  I should probably narrow that down, but it actually gives me a pretty big range of subjects and styles I can play with.

I've been playing around town on occasion and am currently working with a promoter to set up a show in August at Marilynn's in Sacramento.  More details to come.  Otherwise, if you want to just get in touch and let me know you've visited, that would be rad.

"Sometimes when you dream
You awake to memories
Fuzzy recollections of
Some things you haven't done

I don't want to be that guy
No I don't wanna be the one"
