I was born in 1974 during the most exciting music eras of all time. I recently moved to Northern Colorado from Tampa Bay, Florida. I spent the first 20 years of my life in NYC and loved going to small bars and lounges listening to all types of bands. I can still remember the first day I "broke into" my parent’s album collection and discovered all of the awesome classic rock bands that I still love and listen to today. I would take 45’s and make “mixed tapes” of Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Beatles and all of the greats. Music and the great outdoors are my two passions.
