Biography

36 year veteran river outfitter and guide. I do whitewater rafting and kayaking in Washington/Oregon. Write songs about wild places and often use the river as a metaphor for life and my perceptions of it.

Well, I've been on this site for a couple of weeks now, uploaded a few songs just to see what would happen. Those 30 or so people that have listened have likely figured out I probably shouldn't be here as my songs are very different from the rest of the crowd. OK, I admit it, I'm an old guy, stuck in the 70's, writing an playing cause it's fun. Would enjoy more comments though, good, bad and in between, it's all good feedback. I've been out in woods too long

Get Outside is still a rough, no bass or drums yet, still rocks though and people seem to respond to it the most when I play out.

Nope, I'm not from the Sunshine Coast of B.C. , but I did write Desolation Sounds while staying on Mink Island totally alone for two weeks. Mink is in the middle of Desolation Sound, B.C. I am the author, guitarist, and bassist on the tune. The vocal track and harmonies on this cut are by George Merrill, who co-wrote Whitney Houston's two big tunes with his then wife Shannon Rubicam. Together they are Boy Meets Girl band. Both are good friends and musical mentors of mine.
