ABOUT

I've been playing Banjo and Guitar in touring bands for over 30 years. Toured all over Australia and Canada. I started in underground rock but loved experimenting with country and bluegrass and trying "alternative" styles, to keep it progressive and not bogged down in tradition. Love it when a band's music is so inventive and so well honed, it feels like something transcendental takes place.
