61 y/o   Single Man  from Mt Creek

G'day! I've been playing guitar, singing, writing music and performing all of my life. After the Woodstock festival I left college to travel the USA. Upon my return to New York five years later, I attended New Life Ministries in Schenectady. My then duo "Afterglow" was asked to minister in song along side Andre Crouch, The Downings, The Imperials, Lamb, Randy Matthews and other major gospel artists at a week long New Life Convention at the Palace Theater in Albany. Awesome!

In 1979 I was chosen to play guitar in a 9-piece gospel band called "Living Sound" from Tulsa, Oklahoma to tour the USA, Canada, Australia and New Zealand for one year. We played up to 3 concerts a day in churches and schools, did street ministry, played at a huge Billy Graham Crusade in Sydney and at the Sydney Opera House. A truly personal and spiritually rewarding year.

At the end of the tour I remained in Australia. I married but sadly got divorced when my our son Micah was only two years of age. I have been living in Australia for the past 28 years to watch Micah, now 30, evolve into a fine, successful, gentle man. I love him dearly and pray for him daily.

In Australia I worked in musical retail, I owned a vintage musical instrument/antique shop, performed as a solo/duo guitarist/vocalist, managed a finance company and I was a finance personnel consultant.

I returned to New York in March 2008 to help care for my mother Carmella and my sister Karen. My mother passed away in December 2008 and my sister passed away in September 2010. I praise God I was able to spend quality time with them both. I have only my older sister Judy and a few relatives remaining. I have recently returning to Queensland, Australia.

I write various styles of music from gospel to jazz guitar instrumentals. God has blessed me with musical talent, a youthful, joyous spirit, a quirky sense of humor, the desire to give, help others and the gift of discernment. The love of God and knowledge of His daily presence in my life results in my being happy, healthy and of strong faith. I thank God daily for my existence; For His love, blessings and anointing, for my safety, for my son Micah in Australia, for my sister Judy and for all my friends and relatives world-wide.

I hope you are blessed by my gospel music on youtube and my instrumental jazz guitar,bass,drums CD "Swingin' Not Stirred" on myspace and now on facebook.
