He started playing the guitar at the age of 14. He attributes his song writing style to having been a self-taught musician. A troubadour at heart, he has been traveling from place to place, spending time in Maryland, D.C, Paris, Barcelona, Berlin, and Virginia only to make a full circle and find himself back in New York. He now lives in Manhattan, where he performs his latest Folk/Rock albums and composes original scores for films and documentaries. His style is compared to that of J.J. Cale, Lou Reed, and Bob Dylan. Here is a recent review of his latest album, "A Little Time"

— Van Gosse, Former writer of Rock’s Back Pages & The Village Voice
