Welcome to my web page bringing you Americana music One Man Band style, the way I hear it at any rate. In the early 2000 I spent a some time in the Mississipi delta from Memphis TN to Clarksdale MS.
There I found a love for hill country music from the northern region of the state. The sounds and the musicianship took my head and my soul "somewhere over the rainbow". Thank you to the good hearted people of Mississippi, truly!
My experiences led me to do a deep dive into my creative soul and I ended up making cigarbox guitars and other "junk" instruments. I guess I have a little "Fred Sanford" in me. I like to repurpose. What can I say?
Now, I strum while singing out of a 1938 telephone, beat a parade drum and tap my foot on an old license plate. That's what I had learned. Make it your own and own it!
Cigar box music is dirty, stripped down, raw, powerful rhythms! No looping gizmos.
