background / biography
I began playing guitar in the late 1950's, and played folk and classical guitar until business put the guitar in its case in the closet in the 1980's. In the mid 1990's, I regained enough sense to pull out the guitar and renew my interest in playing. My brother kindled an "Old Time Music" spark, so I bought a Deering Goodtime open back banjo in 2000 and set out to learn to play clawhammer style.
Since then, I have played almost everyday, and added a little Ukelele to my noise-making. Currently I am learning to play Old Time fiddle.
In 2007 I started the Tucson Old Time Music Circle to bring together OT musicians in the greater Southern Arizona region.
