Hi everyone , I have been writing and performing my own music for about 20 years. I’m from Smiths Falls, Ontario, Canada and work and play music in beautiful, historic Merrickville.  I have finally decided to record and post some of these tunes for your enjoyment. Hopefully one may take away a bit of knowledge and feeling that wasn’t present before. I guess it’s my attempt to understand myself and the world around me.  I’m going to start setting up stuff, probably a song or two just recorded on a mini cam, for now, and follow up with some tunes worked out on a four track. At any rate, I hope that you always have a song in your heart that brings peace to your head. Happy listening…..    

 

 

Keep your eyes out for  www.merrickvillemusic.com  -  a new site that I have been working on to promote some of the fabulous Merrickville area musicians that we have the pleasure of knowing.  

 

 

Influences include:

 

 

Albert Einstein:   “the secret to genius is to never reveal your sources”  

 

 

John Wayne:   “life is tough, it’s a whole lot tougher if your stupid”

 

 

Bob Dylan:   “a song is anything that can walk by itself”

 

 

Anton Chekhov:    “any idiot can face a crisis – it’s day to day living      

                                 that wears you out”

 

 

Arthur Herzog:    “to fake it is to stand guard over emptiness”

 

 

And anyone whoever blew a note ....
