Originally from London, England. Moved to Charleston WV in 1976 to play with Morris brothers. The rest, as they say, is history.<br>
...So here's the history. I strayed from the bluegrass fold (I wanted to eat, regularly) and wound up playing electric guitar in country dance halls and venues all over the place, including the Opry. I even sold my banjo! Then, in 2002, after a 15 year hiatus I bought <i>that same banjo</i> back again. <br>Since then, I have been trying to challenge myself with new stuff, including writing my own tunes.<br><br>
