Places I've been

born in Pittsburgh P.A. raised in Buffalo N.Y. (Hometown), I received a fine arts diploma in music from high school. As a road musician playing Blues,Jazz,and soul music, I have visited and played in a great number of cities; mainly in the South, Mid-West, and Northeast. Playing saxophone, clarinet, and oboe has permitted me to travel extinsively and meet many interesting people. I also did a tour in Vietnam,which enabled me to play for the troups; along with my other duties. In another instance I travelled to Negril Jamaca and played a tribute at the gravesite of Reggae legend Peter Tosh. Music is my life! Greetings, and Peace with all.
