I have been playing the guitar and singing since I was a teenager and performing professionally for the last twenty years. My specialty is country blues, the fingerpicking style of John Hurt, Mance Lipscomb,Willie McTell, Blind Lemon Jefferson, and others. I also play bossa nova and sing in Portuguese, Italian, and French. I have produced three CD's. The most recent one, 2008, is with harmonica ace Keith Friedland and titled "Shades of Blue".
