Most of my instruction experience has been on-the-job teaching of my professional associates and bandmates as a Musical Director and bandmate. I have occasionally taught lessons during brief stints off of the road, but playing on the road has been my primary job for most of my adult life.

Through this experience I've acquired a broad understanding of the various ways in which people learn and relate to music. Read More

Having done 15 European concert tours and been all over the states, the one thing we all share on this planet is a love for MUSIC. Read More
