Blues Rider

<p>Im just a natural player, I was raised in a Blusegrass family and music was always around, I started playing mandolin at the age of 5 and by the time i was 6 i was learning guitar very quickly. By the age of 12 I started learning Rock-n-roll with my older brother mike.</p><p>We were a bunch of bluegrass pickers gone rock-n-roll strangely enough it worked very well, my brother mikes friend chris ball gave me my first electric guitar, I believe it was a tesco, chris and i have been tight every since. By the age of 17 i started learning to be a lead vocalist out of nessesity, never could find anyone to fit the bill, after years of going at it i began to get good at it. I was in a band called Lickity split through out the 90's and became a song writer as well, at one point in my jorney i ended up out in L.A. Recording with L.A. Guns on there american hardcore album. Ive never stopped playing no matter whats got in the way. As of now im in a Band call Direct drive ( Directdriverock.com) Its a fun cover band thats quickly becomeing Original known here around michigan.</p>
