Influences and Teachers

My heroes are the brave folks uploading their demos, covers, and original grooves to YouTube etc. Some of them suck, some of them are phenomenal, but I watch and learn and appreciate. Thanks to all of you guys.

I get my melody from Jerry Garcia, rhythm from James Brown, energy from Rancid, lines from James Jamerson, and sense of musical space from Steely Dan.

Hobbies and Interests

I'm a rock climber on hiatus while I raise young children and establish myself in a new career. I mountain bike a lot, too.
