For first time visitors, welcome to my home on the net. For those who have been to my site before will notice some changes. Along with the new layout, I have removed a few pages and added others. You will find more audio/video content now. The "MUSIC" page is dedicated to my original music and personal projects. While the "BANDS" page features me as the sideman in other groups or frontman to bands of musical genres that are different from my Blues stylings.
Just added a new page called "The Vault". This page will be dedicated to some of my performances and recordings from the past.

At Home Performances
With the whole world self-isolating, I find myself with quite of bit of time on my hands. With no performances happening I now find myself inspired to do some writing. Either finishing up old ideas or coming up some brand new ones. The video featured below is something I recorded on July 1, 2020 showcasing some of the new material. In the future I am planning to do a few of these videos for those who care to listen. Enjoy!
This time around I decided to cover some suggestions made by some of my friends. You'll find me playing some old Motown Hits, The Who, Leonard Cohen and a French song by Zachary Richard.
As you can see by the Christmas tree in the background 2020 is coming to an end. I want to wish every on a safe and Happy Holidays and all the best in 2021.
