"My 'musical career' so far has spanned over 40 years - primarily in Country, but also rock (oldies, classic, southern, and rockabilly), blues, and top 40s music. While I've been known to play guitar, dobro, and bass as the need arises, my preference is the pedal steel. In the early 1980s, I had the privilege of studying pedal steel under the fine tutelage of the late Buddy Charleton (of Ernest Tubb fame).
I'm currently a member of the Washington DC Metro area 2022 'Best of Loudoun' award-winning Rowdy Ace band - but I also enjoy sitting in with other local bands as time allows. Before Rowdy Ace, I have performed with local area bands Stealin’ the Deal, Billy Clements and the Pickups, Folsom Prisoners, Hillbilly Train, Michelle Renee Band, Cowboy Angels, 85 South, Lonerider, Certified Country, and Restless Country - and, I'm sure I'm forgetting a few.
Over the past four decades, I've also been involved in many other side projects, including event bands, demos, studio work, and musical theatre performances, such as the "Always, Patsy Cline" show, featuring Carter Calvert & Sally Struthers - reviewed at: https://www.broadwayworld.com/norfolk/article/BWW-Review-ALWAYS-PATSY-CLINE-at-Riverside-Center-For-The-Performing-Arts-Soars-20180624
