Welcome to my website.  I hope you find what you're looking for here.  I've tried to make this site as comprehensive as possible for all visitors.

We've added a new section that includes some of my poetry and song lyrics.  These are oft-requested items.  We'll be updating this section with more information as it becomes available.  If you have a request for a specific lyric or poem, please email me.  If the words are mine, I'll be glad to share them.  If they are the work of another artist, I'll happily provide you with contact information, but leave it up to you to purchase or otherwise access the works. 

I'll also be upgrading and consolidating my audio files.  You are welcome to download these and utilize them for your own enjoyment. 

Please buy my CDs and those of other independent artists directly from us or our websites.  This is how we make our livings.

Thanks for your continued support, and take a look at my new partnership with old friends Kitty Donohoe and Jan Krist - The Biddies!

My latest acoustic recording SPINNING is out.  You can purchase one at Music Outfitters, or from me - if you see me.
To read a short essay on the financial realities of being an independent artist in the world of corporate music, and why Indies like me weren't complaining about file-sharing sites like Napster, click here.
