Clawhammer style banjo, both old time and bluegrass flatpick guitar styles. Same with mandolin, although I am more of a rhythm mandolin player. I have been studying old time and bluegrass music for about 8 years now and I have been really hard on the old time stuff for the past 3 years or so. I like old time fiddle tunes, my biggest influences are Uncle Dave Macon, Tommy Jarrell, Dirk Powell, Tim Obrien, Bruce Molsky, and there are too many others to list. I am interested in contributing to the old time music world in any way that I can.

I am most definitely a West Virginia moving toward Kentucky OT banjo player. Thanks to living in Chicago for three years, I tend to be more notey than most but I'm trying to cure that. Principal influences are anyone I am playing with at the moment, Roscoe Holcomb and Bad Bascomb.

I am the proprietor, now standing 13 years, of The Bates Motel!
