I am a music lover -- listening, composing, performing. It has long been my cure for a wide range of ailments including: depression, ennui, loneliness, boredom, dyslexia and excessive happiness. In addition to vocals I play: six and twelve string acoustic guitar, electric guitar, bass guitar, piano, harmonica and violin. Although I have never had a recording contract I have created five albums -- performing most or all the parts myself. Thanks to Mike Oldfield for inspiration to this end.
