<p style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: tahoma,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"> I am of Native American and Scottish descent. That's influence right there. <span style="font-size: x-small; font-family: comic sans ms,sans-serif;">Music has been a part of my life since I was a baby, and I have been writing lyrics since I could pick up one of those fat pencils and write on the very big lines. My stepfather was a cabbi for the Baltimore area, and he would pick up roadies from BWI in the middle of the night. It was nothing to wake up and the roadies for BadCo or someone big would be crashed out in the living room. Who wants to go to school today?Not me! Needless to say I went to alot of concerts with backstage passes. That life had an influence on me and what I wrote for a long time. I was a service brat for most of my life and accredit that to all the different influences I seem to enjoy. The writing comes from the school of hard knocks, life, my heart or yours, and just watching people and what goes on around me. If the music speaks to me or has a feel to it I can write to it. Everyone and everything has a story that needs to be told. I have done some vocals in local bands over the years and really do enjoy singing. I love the blues!! So.....do you have a song with no lyrics and is just waiting to tell a story, let me know! </span></span></span></span></span></p>
