| Introduction | I perform original songs and accompany myself on guitar, banjo, and musical saw. My music is influenced by old time recordings, Tom Waits, and the musicians you can read about on this blog. I'm currently living in Peterborough, Ontario, but have spent time in Montreal and Valladolid, Yucatan, Mexico. Check out the "Music" tab to hear samples, or browse the blog for special posts.
