Heartland
There could be no better title for this CD. His guitar work is extraordinary; embracing the sad whimsy of a Nick Drake and the creative fury of a Leo Kottke. It is a perfect CD for anyone who enjoys great guitar and great stories."
Ken Onstad, President - New Folk Records/Loud Folk Records
The Road
The Road is more than just a well-recorded album. It speaks because it offers a glimpse into those gritty places in life most of us know well, offered through storytelling that is heartfelt and vulnerable.
Guy Mendilow, Composer/Performer/Educator
