About Me

ABOUT ME

I've been a travelling musician for the past 15 years. I consider it a grand success of career and life to have travelled the world singing and playing songs. I will continue to do it till I'm not able.

Sometimes with a band, sometimes with my girlfriend, I like to make an adventurous time of life and care little for costly comforts in the process.

The most enjoyable part of it for me is immersing myself in whatever culture I find. Eating the food, meeting the people, whatever. Rich as a king.

PHILOSOPHY

No judgement.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love so much music from so many different eras from several cultures that it's best to just have a conversation about it. There is less that I don't like then do.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once play a rock concert in Jerusalem near the old city. There was a heavy rain storm complete with biblical amounts of lighting and thunder just as we were driving into town. The rain grew so hearty that things began to flood. My band mates and I ran through the narrow paths of the old city as they flooded. Ankle deep in water with our guitars and drums held overhead. The water rose near the knees then receded. It was literally awesome.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you what I know about music, writing and melody. I know many of the good spots in Victoria for eating and my girlfriend and I frequent several good hiking spots.
