Welcome
My Music
Random tunes have always played in my head. And to this day, I hear music everywhere and in everything. It's been my constant companion; accompanying me on long walks home and comforting me during troubling times. My singing career began at Miami's "Desert Inn". I've performed at county fairs, street festivals, clubs and bars on the east coast. Also, I've appeared on television shows and my songs have received radio play. Some of my songs reflect my background and interest in comedy. I taught and organized comedy workshops in New Jersey. Many years ago and prior to attaining nationwide fame as a comedian, Rodney Dangerfield worked in the home improvement industry. My father was his employee. At that time, Rodney was still struggling to "make it" in comedy and stipulated that before my father received his weekly paycheck, he had to sit and listen to Rodney's new comedy material. Rodney was an early inspriation to me because despite his day job, he persisted in pursuing his creative dream. He never gave up and I haven't either. I graduated from Monmouth University with a degree in History. This has helped me keep one eye on the past while casting one leary eye towards an uncharted future. My personal future was destined to include 14 different jobs in the span of a few years. I should have called myself a self-employment consultant. My many different occupations have aided in my songwriting by exposing me to unique experiences, varied (and sometimes strange) people and lots of learning opportunities. If asked to cite my three greatest musical influences, I would say the Beatles, the Kinks and Ray Stevens. I respect topical writers with a sense of humor that can successfully fuse different musical styles. Please enjoy my work.
