Producer / Guitarist / Songwriter

I grew up in the south and learned to play guitar from my dad at the age of 6. My early influences were every guitar player I ever heard from Duane Eddy to Duane Allman.
I was about 17 when I moved to southern California where I met and was mentored by the late great Gene Davis, lead guitarist for Eddie Cochran and Roger Miller. (Cut Across Shorty - Sittin' In The Balcony) He was the best guitar player I have ever known and a good man.

I've written songs with some cool talented people like number one Nashville songwriters Dean Dillon & Earl Clark
& Grammy winning L.A. composer/drummer Ricky Lawson (Yellow Jackets, Eric Clapton, Baby Face) and the incredible R&B singer Ellis Hall (Tower Of Power).

I created and wrote the songwriters column "The Coffee Club" for the legendary magazine Country Song Roundup. I was also a DJ for the greatest station in the world "KPIG" 107.5 in Freedom California, the No.1 station on California's central coast.
