The age of 47 is a helleuva time to (re-)start a musical career, but that's basically what I'm trying to do. It's funny how circular life can turn out to be.
I've been playing guitar since I was 5 years old in Flushing, New York, and was planning a music career when I entered college. But while I was getting a degree in voice and performance from SUNY-Binghamton more than 20 years ago, I fell in love with a woman with blazing hazel eyes, and nothing has been the same since! I set aside dreams of musical glory and became a "responsible individual". Ultimately, we settled down in the Boston area, spending our time on mundane careers and raising two kids in the process. But music is a persistent muse who doesn't let go of her followers easily. And so, here I am, picking up again where I left off.
My music is influenced by other singer/songwriters like James Taylor, David Wilcox, Susan Werner and Jackson Browne. It speaks to "baby-boomers" like myself who are too young at heart to be called middle-aged, but too old for the likes of our own offspring.
