Since the late 1970's, I have been part of several bands, writing and playing original blues, rock n' roll and R&B guitar based songs. One of my earliest high profile gigs was playing guitar for Muddy Waters' bassist Charles Calmese. I was featured in Guitar Player magazine (3/91), and since then I have played and recorded with Rick Derringer, The Dirty Bones Blues Band, Max Weinberg, Mark Nomad, Jaimoe from The Allman Bros., Second Son, Guitar Shorty, Adolph Jacobs of The Coasters, and The Delrays, for which I received acclaim from Buddy Guy. Since 1999, I have been the principal songwriter and producer of the rock and roll power trio “Mambo Sons,” who recorded 4 critically acclaimed cds for Omnicide Records, the last one entitled “Heavy Days” being a double album that was named “Record of the Year” by Cleveland's “Rock and Roll Report” in 2010.

In the mid to late ‘80's, I worked as a writer, producer and guitarist on jingles primarily for FM radio. In 1986, I provided arrangement input to Eddie Money's "Take Me Home Tonight" single. For the better part of the 1990's, I served as a session guitarist for several studios, including The Gallery, one of Connecticut's major production facilities, and WHUS, UCONN's radio station. During this time, I played on hundreds of sessions for dozens of artists, with styles including straight ahead rock and roll, blues, rockabilly and acoustic music. My music has also been featured in corporate training videos, and local news shows.

In addition, I write for Vintage Guitar magazine, and am an endorsee for Brian Moore Custom guitars and DST-Engineering amplifiers. Also, I recently joined the Editorial Board of ToneQuest Magazine following that publication's feature story on me (CLICK HERE TO READ), which appeared in April '07.
