I grew up during the 1960s. It was a time of great musical invention and creativity. I listened to AM radio and followed the weekly top ten countdown. It was a very exciting time. Now I have taken my love of the time period and perform many songs written from this creative period. I play acoustic guitar and sing, covering songs and artists such as the Beatles, James Taylor. Joni Mitchell, Pete Seeger, and many others. I have many songs that I can perform, and am constantly learning more. I have a good voice (which is pretty important!)
