I love Computers, Sony PS, Photography and of course, music!!!

I was introduced to music when I received
an acoustic guitar on my 8th birthday.
My older brother had received an electric the previous X-mas.

Of course, as little brothers go, I was not to be outdone and
proceeded to hone my craft till I received my first Bass...
Which ironically, was bought for me by my dear brother
when I reached my 12th birthday....
At the time I thought he thought I had a bass players ear...
Later, I found I did and he needed an accompanist.

But, things worked out.

The next 7 years saw me playing in a Gospel group...
Inspired by my mom...Shirley, my brother...Calvin,
my Aunt... Lil Eva “Do The Loco Motion”...
I gathered the courage to move to Texas in November 1979

Finally, with Karma, I feel I have found
the kind of band and music that will allow me
to truly grow musically!!!
