Three Months

These are personal songs from the heart that tell real stories: let's call it blues. True--other musical styles also have heart and that's why other styles also pop up here. It's a musical conversation that I hope you'll engage in and find something that you can relate to. This album was a great learning experience for me--as a songwriter, arranger, engineer and producer. The songs on this album are sort of all over the map musically, but they all have a lot of meaning to me personally so that's why they're together. A big huge thanks to everyone who played on these tracks and to my wife Donna who always supported my work.
