solo acoustic guitar and voice with imagistic lyrics and rich, percussive chord-work.
Bio / Background
A Bay Area musician, I divide my playing time between San Francisco and Los Angeles.
For me, Pete Townshend's performance at Amnesty International's Secret Policeman's Ball is the model to aspire to. I'm also very much influenced by Adrian Belew's quirky guitar imaginings (particularly his rare solo acoustic work) and the sheer poetry - musically and lyrically - of the masterful Silvio Rodriguez. Rich, percussive chordwork and lyrical imagery - that's my gig.
The CD recording, "Sorcery and Beer," is an impression of what I do - a collection of first and second studio takes, with just me and my guitar. Check out my song, "Down by the Cinnabar Mines" in Creative Line's category of "Great Songs of Beauty or Wonder". The San Luis Obispo New Times once described my music as "lively folk rock" - heavy on the "lively", with a solid dose of acoustic rock!
I'm in the midst of recording a CD in Los Angeles. Stay tuned.
