MY STORY

Music Matters.

My story...

Ever since I can remember music has affected me in strange and powerful ways. I was the toddler who would go nuts dancing to my 78 rpm kiddie records, and I was the teenager who couldn’t get enough of the Beatles, the Stones, and Dylan. When I finally picked up my first guitar at 14 there was no turning back. 

The soundtrack of my teenage years was the great rock, soul and popular music of the 60s, 70s. I was lucky that my curiosity led me to explore the rich and ongoing traditions of blues, jazz, folk and country. My life as a musician has been an amazing and never-ending journey. I’m still learning and growing, and I’m looking forward to whatever happens next! 

I maintain a busy performance schedule in the northeast and beyond as a solo performer and a guitarist/singer in several popular bands, playing roots-oriented soul, rock, blues, country and jazz. I’m fortunate to collaborate with some of the finest musicians in New England.  

Please check my calendar for upcoming shows, sign up for occasional email updates, and stay in touch. Check out my blog for my totally subjective opinions on a variety of music-related topics. And, if you need a guitarist or a band for any occasion please contact me.
