Details:
I am an acoustic guitarist in Bellevue Washington.
I was born and mostly raised in Phoenix, Arizona. Graduated from Saguaro grade school and Moon Valley High School. I first learned to play the guitar as a junior in high school (1976) when I picked up my mothers 1958 Harmony archtop f-hole jazz guitar. Learned the required John Denver songbook and some Jim Croce tunes. After high school there were a few open mic nights and some jam sessions with local acoustic artists, but life started calling and music became a hobby instead of a profession.
I moved to Washington in December of 1996. Moved back to Arizona in 2000 and back to Washington again in May of 2001. I continued to play off and on (mostly off) until I married my wife Diana in 2003. With her inspiration the passion for writing music began again. Since June of 2003 I've written about a hundred songs and recorded many of them myself.
I Write and record using a Martin Cowboy II, An Ibanez aef18tvs and a Gretsch Jumbo cutaway.

These are instrumental versions of songs I have written that have lyrics, with the exception of 'Scotland the Brave' which has lyrics but I didnt write it. I've discovered that some folks like my playing better than my voice, so I release one of each.
The CD was recorded using a Tascam 8-track DP-01 digital recorder. Then transfered to wav files with Nero Wave editor and burned onto CD-R using Cakewalk Pyro.

I hope you enjoy listening as much as I did playing.
