Biography:
I am a small town boy, but not a boy anymore. I'm not too smart, but also not
too smart so I'm still a good conversation. I like to write songs. I like to write
about love, common sense, inspiration, scorn and life. Grew up with popular
country music on the radio blaring everyday so of course it has influenced me a
lot. As I grew into my teens I developed a liking for the Canadian pop music of
the times like most kids, but it was high school where I found the scream of the
glam rock and roll guitar. Joining and starting Rock and Roll bands, all the while
my song writing didn't have an edge or rock and roll sound, but I secretly wrote
and didn't show my friends. I haven't written a ton of songs, but I hope that
joining the SAC community I will find a place to fit in, maybe share what I have
written or cowrite with someone. Unfortunately I lost my singing voice about 5
years ago. I am hoping to either find someone to sing the songs or I might try to
sing them myself on the demo's I am going to upload. I will only upload if they
sound good. I am working on Social Media type things at the moment. Also I am
not trying for a record deal only song writing. Thanks.
