Music

A native New Yorker, I've been living in the Boston area for many years. Originally, I took up guitar to sing covers. I'd jam whenever possible: especially with the "Thursday Night Group", at bluegrass festivals and at folk-music gatherings. Occasionally, I'd even write my own tunes. Now, my emphasis has shifted toward writing my own songs and performing them, in the Boston region for the most part. Life is an ever-fascinating circus of activity and emotions. My songs are an outlet to observe and comment, but hopefully, not to judge (some exceptions apply).  Currently, I hold US copyrights on over 60 original songs, with many more pending.

In 2009, my first CD “Back From the War” came out and received great critical applause.  A number of performers around the country now cover some of these tunes much to my delight.  They’ve also been aired on broadcast and internet radio stations.

In my home town of Lincoln, I’ve been running a new and well appreciated open mike, LOMA.  We’ve had a series of very fine performers featuring.   I open the evening.  After that, it’s my pleasure to hear some unrecognized talent offer very compelling, often surprising, pieces 

 

Other interests

I have pursued a career in physics, which has been a focus since high school.  Family is another major focus and source of inspiration.  I enjoy the outdoors, and collect wild mushrooms for the table.  Free-style dance and photography are both regular activities for me.
