About Me |
|
| Greetings wide world. I'm a singer and a songwriter. I play on a Collings Western C-10 guitar. I have a few cds out. I like music that makes you work, makes you think and certainly feel, that makes you want to listen. Maybe I like music that is more savory than sweet. But I think I like the sweet side of a menu more than the savory side. Maybe that's not true. Cause I really like Asian food, and I rarely get anything for dessert at a Chinese or Thai or Indian restaurant. For that matter, I rarely get dessert at an Italian restaurant...
For the past year or so, I've been calling Georgia home. And I like my neighbors and the way the trees smell there. But I'm not home enough. I've been lucky to find great musicians who listen to what I come up with and offer their hearts and heads to my songs. I'm also lucky to have the sweetest girl in this big world to help me think and see and feel. Her name is Sarah and she sneaks her way into a number of my lyrics and just about every one of my melodies. Come say hello. Or ask me a question or two. I'm no good at bios. But who is, really?
