Details:
I have been playing guitar for thirty years. For about
twenty of those years I have been performing for local audiences in the bars, parties, weddings, etc. I started writing original songs about ten years ago and have fallen in love with the creative process. I have become sufficiently skilled that I am writing songs that I enjoy hearing over and over again. Songwriting gives me the ability to express myself emotionally and intellectually to a large audience. I find this experience very rewarding. My new (and first) album: "Better Angels Battle Babylon" has proven popular so far in three countries: the U.S., Jamaica, and Dominica. I write eclectically, i.e. in whatever style fits the song's central idea best. This approach keeps the songs different enough from each other to sustain the ear's interest over the full album listening experience and also keeps me interested in the writing process. Most people who hear the album, like it. Please listen. Thanks, Bob Snow.
