A full band sound of classic rock hits from the 60's on...
"NO ALIBIS", "DECEIVED", "TRAIL OF TEARS" and "TH OTHER SIDE" are my first four album releases. I am currently working on my 5th CD which will be entitled "SOUNDSCAPES".
I have over 58 years of live stage experience with multiple bands. I played my 1st "Battle of the Bands" at age 12, and I've had formal voice training. I've played in 8 U.S. States, Corfu & Athens - Greece, Singapore, Hong Kong and the hanger deck & flight deck of U.S.S. Saratoga CV-60 on the return cruise home from Vietnam. One of my earlier bands opened for Albert King in Pueblo, CO & toured CO, WO, & KS. My last band, "I.C.U." played extensively in MD, PA, & DE for over 16 yrs., and opened for "Skid Row" in Pottsville, PA.
All of my original CD releases are studio albums that I composed, played, recorded, and premastered. All 4 previous albums were mastered by renowned engineer & producer, Gene Paul - winner of 9 Grammy's including a Grammy for Roberta Flack's "Killing Me Softly". Gene is the son of legendary guitarist & inventor - Les Paul.
"DECEIVED" is a hard charging Rock 'n Roll release that includes an
up tempo ballad and a slow blues track.
"NO ALIBIS" is a sentimental, thought provoking collection of ballads.
"TRAIL OF TEARS" is a powerful progressive rock collection with political overtones.
"THE OTHER SIDE" is a heavy collection of ballads and dynamic progressive rock. It is dedicated
to my 3 best friends, all who were musicians and died too soon.
All 4 current CD's are currently available on over 95 digital distribution sites around the world, including "CDBaby" & "Amazon".
My live shows feature full backing vocals and instrumentation for all cover songs & originals, that I played & recorded in my studio. I sing lead vocals and play rhythm & lead guitar live. Each song has a video I produced that includes live clips and pictures.
I don't need much room and I only need one 120v power source...
Beatles, Rolling Stones, Aerosmith, most of the rock national bands from the 60's on...
I will supply all equipment, not much required!
