BIOGRAPHY

Writing songs since '69. These performances are intended as demos. I am looking for groups and individuals to record and perform them. My songs and lyrics have been recognized in various songwriting contests, including a "finalist" placement in the VH1 Song of the Year contest, and I have contributed lyrics to other writer's songs. Studied bass with Berklee grad, Dave Demarco, in Baltimore, and played bass for LIQUID GARDEN. Lived in Istanbul, Turkey and played with some great Turkish musicians in a band called 45 Degrees. Currently living in Panama!

Robbie Robertson

As a member of The Band, Robbie Robertson changed the course or rock music history, hipping the genre to a more old-timey sound with songs like “The Weight,” “Up On Cripple Creek,” and “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down.” His latest solo album, How To Become Clairvoyant, reflects on his rock and roll past.
