About Me

My photo
I am a published songwriter who writes catchy hooks and melodies in the styles of Pop, Country and Soft Rock. I have performed live on Breakfast Television in Toronto, Global News at Noon, as well as in music videos shown on CMT. My songs have been recorded by different artists, and I have songs used in television shows and film. I have performed in many different bands over the years in the genres of country, pop and rock. My influences include such great harmony bands as The Byrds, The Eagles, Blue Rodeo, Poco, CSNY, Alison Krauss and Union Station, as well as the great artists and songwriters Neil Young, Jackson Browne, Garth Brooks, Dan Fogelberg, Joni Mitchell, Rob Thomas and so many more. I am involved in the music industry as a songwriter, performer, producer, jingle writer, voice over talent, studio musician, publisher, promoter and licensing agent. I am currently recording my first album of original songs and hope to have it available some time in the new year. There is SO MUCH great talent that exists in the great pool of unsigned artists and songwriters. My advice to others: Be true to yourself, follow your heart and NEVER give up your dream!

New Drummer

Hi All,

Just wanted everyone to know that my band "Home Grown" has a new drummer; namely "Kid Carson"! Kid has been playing in different bands throughout the Toronto area since the 1960's, and his sense of humour has not changed a bit in all those years (still warped). He still gives you 100 laughs per song, and sometimes we can't look at him while we're all playing for fear of cracking up!

He is a fantastic drummer, PLUS a great singer/songwriter (sounds a bit like Neil Young). We are excited to have him as part of Home Grown.

I will be posting his bio and photo to the Home Grown website soon!
