Many serendipitous moments and encounters of chance have brought me to where I am now. Much thought, inspiration and emotion flows into my music and I feel blessed to be able to share it with you.
My first album "Well Why Not" is now available digitally online: Well Why Not - digital download.
Our latest album "Suspended in Motion" is now also digitally available online: Suspended in Motion - digital download.
My good friends and participants in the album, John Guidera, Mark Bruininga, Greg Brown and I performed as "Arnika Montana" in the local DC area. I have now moved south to Southern Virginia and am regrouping.
