BIOGRAPHY
I play guitar, drums, bass and sing. I've acted in network television and studio feature films. I've been playing music for decades and I've had the great fortune of playing with some incredible players. As a teenager I was fortunate enough to spend several years learning the Blues from a real blues master, deceased Warner/Elektra recording artist JOHN CAMPBELL. I've recorded with Campbell's former bassist JIMMY PETTIT and drummer extraordinaire BRIAN SEBASTIAN. I've played with the legendary OZMO BOOGIE BAND and many other awesome players out of the Pacific Northwest. I've performed on guitar with Austinite WARREN HOOD for the feature film AMERICAN OUTLAWS. I've shared the stage with amazing players such as DOYLE BRAMHALL II, KEITH FERGUSON, DOUG SAHM, PAUL ORTA, HOWARD MCLAUGHLIN, BRUCE PYLE, W.C CLARK, BUGS HENDERSON, AL HAYES, STEVE BIGLER, STEVE FOFRMBY, RON WOOD, CANNED HEAT, JERRY COOPER & SONS, HANS OLSON, CHUCK HALL, JIM "THE BOSSMAN" BROWN, TIM LANGFORD, PAT COAST, SAMMY EUBANKS, JOHN CARSTON, DAVID SPANN, JEFF ANDERSON, POCO FALCON, DEE PURKEYPILE, DANA OLIVER and so many others too numerous to list. I'm thankful to them all.
My recordings include a guest appearance on Jimmy Pettit's VEGAS HOTEL and a new release BIG BAD WUFF to be released in Fall of 2011. This CD will feature 10 original blues/rock songs recorded live in 1991-93.
