my story
I was born in Los Angeles, California to a woman who sang and a man who played guitar. Not a single childhood morning passed without the sound of my father tuning his nylon string, acoustic guitar and playing songs. My life was forever changed when he gave me a gorgeous, old, weathered guitar that had been handed down from my great-grandfather, to my grandfather, to my father, and then to me. It was my most prized possession and the beginning of my life-long love affair with music.
I left home at 18 to travel the world and fall into (and out of) love. After many colorful experiences, I ended up in San Diego, CA.
My music is American Folk. I like using clever combinations of words that have a lyrical honesty reminiscent of Outlaw Country. I am musically inspired by 1960's Protest Folk, Classic American Roots music, and folk music from around the world. My songs are vocally and lyrically driven and my guitar is merely the vehicle to tell my story.
