TAXI

Basic Overview

My Dad bought me my first guitar for my 12th Birthday and I was immediately obsessed. The Beatles had just landed and I couldn't put it down. I wrote my first song at 19 and since then I've pretty much had one going at all times . . to the present day. It was the process of expressing a thought or emotion or capturing a moment in a little musical interlude that I pursued. What a wonderful expression. I've been doing demos since the early 70's. I cut a local record in '76 in Maine. I made a living doing a solo lounge/bar act thru the 70's in New England and eastern Canada until my early 30's at which point I got a 'real' job and played in a few original bands in the Boston scene . . . always recording, I was involved in several demos throughout the 70's and 80's . . . . . I came to California in '90 to pursue a songwriting career and became a Christian, at which point I pursued the Lord and started writing and playing worship as well as writing Contemporary Christian material. At this point, the writing turned into the process of revealing God's plan or expressing His desires or our/my struggles, making a point or presenting a thought that encourages us or draws us closer to God and that Glorifies our Savior. All in a little musical package. Such a privilege. I've had the joy of leading worship at 3 different churches in Southern California and have had the pleasure of leading worship at a couple years worth of Youth Camps. I did a Contemporary Christian CD in the 90's and have shelved it for re-release after my second CD which is now in the planning stages. I've put my efforts for the past 2 years into a solo Contemporary Christian Folk CD, just released, called 'Kingdom of Conscience' that was recorded so that it will easily translate from Stage to CD player. My career starts now . . . . in Gods perfect timing . . . . .
