After 14 years of band member ups and downs I went into hibernation in late 1999. I continued songwriting and worked on improving my acoustic guitar and flute playing. In early 2000, I built a soundroom in my basement - with help from Jon Rose, bought some recording gear and started doing solo projects of original songs. To date (2/21/06) I have completed 11 Solo CD's - Thorns and Roses - Variants - Root Notes - The Great Beyond - There's A Cat in My A Zen Garden - Sense of Spirit - Lines of Sight - Go Configure - Perseverance - One Man's Opinion and Family Fortunes. In 2003 I also completed work on the Connector project after 2 years. This album features a number of Salem musicians - Tim Lamberson, Jon Rose, Terry Schneider, Marilyn Lamberson, Brett Groh, Thom Warren and Jim Geisler.

I still occasionally play live and have added some electric guitar work and percussion to more recent recordings along with acoustic guitars, flute, harp and vocals.
