An American writer, singer and guitar player. His jazz and blues roots combined with a fever for songwriting give him an originality that refuses any solid comparisons to genres except for a hint of nostalgia for old soul music: he sounds like himself.  His guitar playing serves as an homage to Boston's history of legendary guitarists - there’s a jazz preservation in that blues overdrive tone that’s always possessed by a funk rhythm. He uses TR-11’s for the bigger tone.
