About Me |
|
| Maybe it all started with listening to my first Beatle 45's and LP's, or my Dads reel to reel. Or my musical heritage, both my Grand Parent's played in band's well into their late 90's. Lucky enough to have great teacher's like Steve Perkins, Al Maene,Den Sweeney,Greg Mooter,Bruce Gertz,Oscar Stagnaro! After attending Berklee School of Music, I remained in Boston for next 17 or so years. Playing and Recording in most of the major studio's and venues all over New England. With a variety of bands and musical projects. My Boston based bands were: Equinox/Dionysus, The Quest/Up From Eden,Parachute, Mirage,Jeremiah,Two Fisted Tales,Justin Case,
Laughing Dogs,Ross Robinson,Robert A. Band,Moonfleet,Abandin Flight/ Frontier Pilots.
With Family matters bringing me full circle back to Philly. I took a day gig at Tower Records which remained my home for the next decade. But have also kept busy with local acts,my Philly Bands are:The Last Minute Jam,Eastsiders,Kelly Ann Monahan, Rick Allen and the Upsetters,Jefferson Berry and Friends,Hippies and Hillbillies,Lenny G and the Soulsenders. Lonnie Shields Band, B.L.T. Dance Band ..
