I've been too long without being on the run
--"Lightning Rose"(Paul Kantner)

    Music wasn't important to me when I was growing up. I took guitar lessons in 4th grade but didn't continue. I bought a $15 guitar to use in a 1959 play then found my aunt's old tenor banjo in our storage area in 1960. I got a Kay guitar in 1964 and began playing folk music at Washington's Dupont Circle, meeting Bob Clayton and forming the hungry 2.

    I continued playing music up and down the East Coast and performed regularly in open mikes in the Baltimore/Washington area until I moved to Massachusetts in 2011. I have also performed in open mikes across the nation and in Canada. For full details of my musical "career," check out About Me & Music.

    2022: Regularly performing at The Rendezvous in Turners Falls, St. Stan's in Turner's Falls, The Nook (8 Franklin St, Westfield, MA 01085, 413/472-8404) and The Hitchcock Brewery in Bernardston
