What's up. Thanks for checkin out my Indaba page. This site is cool shit right? The first 2 tunes above are from my new record NORTH that was just released in December. The last one is just some fun in the home studio.
I play live with a bunch of different people including some NYC pros and other players from around the North East US. I do gigs as small as solo gigs playing my guitar and pickin dobro straight up through the 7 piece Americana/Rock madness. I'm currently booking dates for coming months.
My tune "Intentions Fade (for Levon)" can be heard on a compilation called "The United State of Americana vol. 5" released by Shut Eye Records in Atlanta, GA. It shows off some of the best Americana acts out there.
I'm also working on a bunch of new songs to start stockpiling for another record sometime `08 ish.
I play for Rocky Mountain Slide Company of Salida, Colorado. Yer slide not cuttin' the mustard? Ask me about RMS!
I'd love to work together. Hit me up.

- Favorite Lyric:
There's a still in the night
a tuneless moonlight
just the I-need-you-and-here's-whys of
snoring Gords and Cheryls
there's a heron outside
inviolate light
there's an urge to go, a shadow
a heightened air of peril
your heart jumps to
and my heart jumps too
I think, to myself "I don't really know my heart"
and as you whisper 'me too'
a silver jet roars overhead
rocks the nocturne all everglade
and grey sheers
silver jet, so har off already
ya fought the hot spurs off all the way
to Cape Spearit's quiet again
when a car like Big Ben
it's radio dopplerin'
'...'and for all you Gregory Peck fans...
-Let Us Now Praise Famous Men-
to take some pressure off all the wonderous
to fight' and
your heart jumps to
and my heart jumps too
as if the Wolves of Northhumberland themselves
were rumoured to be en route
silver jet, way overhead
yer an archipelago, a satllite,
a green star
silver jet, so far off already
with your I-need-you-and-here's-why
flying to the next partyour heart jumps to
and my heart jumps too
I'm thinking, to myself, 'packing,is a secret heart'
and as you whisper, 'me too'
siler jet roars overhead
silver jet flying to the next part
silver jet so far off already
silver jet, a satellite, a green star
silver jet way overhead
silver jet evergladed grey sheers
silver jet, so far off already
silver jet Clayqout sound to Cape Spear
