Hey Bulldog (Beatles)
Brief Autobiography:
During the last 15 years, I have studied, composed, performed, recorded
and produced music (alone and with ensembles) in various genres, including Classical, Progressive Rock and Contemporary Folk.
Instruments I play include (but are not limited to):
4,5 and 6 string electric Bass Guitar, 6 string Guitar (Classical and
Acoustic/electric), Drum set and percussion (I love to hand drum), Keyboards, Mandolin & Harmonica.
My main focus is to write from the heart, continue to inspire others,
provoke intelligent thoughts and try to be a better person than I was yesteryear. Let the music be- nothing attached. I currently
reside in beautiful Colorado, USA.
Singing Out of the Solid, by: Lana Ayers (c) 2000
There's a voice that's like the river, riding pebbles into sound. It smoothens out the edges, and bleeds
invisible into itself. There's a voice that flows from mountain crest where eagle wings brush morning sky;
that finds it's soul in rain shuddering sweetly to valley floor. There's a voice that channels through rock,
winding wide, then narrow to the salt of sea; a voice that makes my own stone heart lighter,
crying it's tears of river for me, so I can laugh, again.
