MUSICAL BIO & SOME OLD PICS
I began writing songs in Virginia
when I was 12 until hitchhiking one
summer to California with only a
$20 bill and a box guitar. In
Hollywood, I attended several
popular-style songwriting workshops
while studying bass with various
instrument teachers. After five years
of songwriting workshops and
playing bass in a variety of bands
throughout the Los Angeles area, I
relocated to Nashville. There I
played bass & acoustic guitar in
several local Nashville bands until
performing in a traveling Holiday Inn
Top 40 band across the Deep South
and far Midwest nonstop for two
years.  Eventually, I'm back home in
Richmond where I would rewrite and
record the songs I had written
during my lifetime after having
performed them at open mic night
shows throughout the Richmond
area for the past 10 years.  Ten
Tales To Be Told is the first of three
CDs of these songs.  I consider my
style contemporary folk. (Gordy
