My heart and soul are in the Stratocaster

Age 10. I joined the school marching band as a drummer.

I borrowed a guitar at age 16 and taught myself to play because I wanted to write songs.

Yes, but don't forget I also have the luxury of the worlds finest band when it gets lonely.

As much as I love performing, nothing juices me up creatively like being in my own studio for an extended period. Songs, ideas, even paintings are pouring out of me. My inspiration and usual subject matter: life.

I thought I might be a band instructor, someone who plays all the instruments and teaches others.

I have enjoyed all the artists I've worked with.
