   A singer from early childhood I loved to listen to my dad play guitar and sing. I  first joined a band with some guys at work "Dr Hose and the swinging meat band" we  played 2  acoustic songs for a company picnic. I  was hooked. 

     I then hooked up with some friends from school and formed a rock band &  made money for strings and PA equipment working at a local used music store. The band lasted about 2 years until after sighting artistic differences the guitarist quit. 

   Moved to Boise in 1982 and joined "The Heat" Played the Boise scene for a couple years until half the band decided to go to college.

   Got responsible in 1984 children and career yada yada yada ... Sister-in-Law introduced me to My good friend Bob Lardinais... and I joined Jack Crowne and the Coronas. We have been playing music together for 6 years now and we're as strong as ever.
 
   In 2005 I found a community of recording artists online at  My Virtual Band.com and rev'ed up my song writing and recording skills. Wanting to share my music with as many people possible I created The Virtual Song Cast This is where I talk about my songwriting and recording experiences. It has turned into a great hobby and creative outlet for me.
