I have been doing music for about 25 years. I have no greater love on this earth, save family of course. I find inspiration and guidance in life's oddities. For example, I was watching the movie "Big Fish", you know the part with all the spiders? Anyway, I thought, wouldn't it be neat if all the spiders started playing the strings on thier webs all at once, I wonder what it would sound like. That is the place, and places like that, where I find myself when I write. Music to me is feeling rather than sound. In my opinnion, sound creates emotion, feeling inspires imagination. This is the main reason why I wouldn't and couldn't limit myself the learning of just one instrument.

I live in Georgia, however, I am not native. I have lived in several different states around the country but, I find the most beautiful to be the southwest. There is something magical about the desert. I am currently the lead guitarist and song writer for a metal band that I founded. Most say they find my lyrics disturbing, not that it has negative or morbid content, but they say they find it, well....alien. My only response to this is, cool. I hope you enjoy what I've given and what I'm going to give however, If you do or don't like what you hear just remember one thing, I thank you very much for taking the time to try it and, most importantly, I'm not really here. |

I am influenced more by the piece than the artist and the moment in which it is delivered. I love , of course, composers such as, Hans Zimmer, Trevor Rabin, Jan Hammer, and The Dean....John Williams.I would love to hear a soundtrack composed by James Horner and PinkFloyd, wouldn't that be awsome?
