Details:
Born and raised in the Grafton Hill area of Worcester, Mass,
My earliest memory of playing guitar was as a little tyke strumming the awful sounding plastic strings on a toy guitar. Inspiration struck me at around age 6 while watching my older cousin picking away on his guitar and I realized, I really wanted to do that!
As fate would have it, walking with my Mom one day I found an undisclosed amount of money in a bag on the street. Don’t know what became of that money, but I was rewarded with my first acoustic guitar not long after. My cousin took me under his wing and showed me a few basic chords and my love for guitar just evolved from there. I heard the first Boston album when I was about 12 years old, and that’s all it took, I was hooked on electric guitar, and haven’t looked back since.
Many guitar lessons later, I formed my first band in high school.
We won first place in a “Battle of the Bands” at a large venue in Worcester and it whet my appetite for stage performing. I played in and performed out with, several bands in the Worcester area, all the while honing my chops and expanding my skills teaching myself to play keyboards, drums and bass. My main interests in the last 10 years or so have turned to writing and producing my own music, as well as collaborating with a former band-mate singer/lyricist for a potential future release of original songs.
With the progression of digital technology, some healthy investments in good equipment and patience from my family…WOLLA… my first CD in 41 years!
