Other.ABOUT
I am an improvising musician playing electric and acoustic guitars and mandolin. My focus is on original music or re-interpreting familiar songs.

I love to play live in small venues. I am available to sit in with singer songwriters, or with small groups seeking a colour player for fills and supportive accompaniment.

Out of Control
Out of Control Year: 2012 Album: Unreleased Genre: Other
An electric improvisation over "Out of Control", a song written by my good friend Fred Brooks.

An Improvisation
An Improvisation Genre: Acoustic
Search for your own musical voice. That was advice I read in an interview with Santana years ago. There's a little bit of that in this improvisation. I like finding chord voicings that let chord tones mingle and ring openly with notes in passing, notes sometimes slightly more discordant.
