I am an independent artist who currently resides in Louisiana. Interested in music at an early age, I have performed in various live groups including the Houston, TX bands S/he and Mountain of Joy. I have played guitar and keyboards since age 15, and have a bachelor's degree in music from a small Louisiana university. More importantly, I have been profoundly influenced by the blues and jazz roots in Louisiana, as well as having developed a great enthusiasm for computers and computer-aided recording and sound modification. A longtime fan of Pink Floyd's work in the late 60's and early 70's, I have remained open to as many modern influences as I could assimilate. My guitar playing is heavily influenced by the work of David Gilmour, Jimmy Page, and Eric Clapton, to name just a few. My keyboard playing has classical roots, and I am trained in classical guitar as well. My recent work with computers has brought out more influences from techno and electronic music, since the tools are there.
