Where have I been? I've been hanging out on the fringes of Folk Music for years. I have been singing in small venues and writing my own songs since 1976!  Sometimes in the company of other "well-knowns" like Chuck Pyle, Tom Rush, John Denver, and Utah Phillips. So I'll ask it again....where have I been all this time. I chose another path for a while. A PhD and career as a wildlife biologist, raising a family of three (now grown) sons, until 2014.   I blew the whistle on my boss, got fired, got divorced, moved to the small Colorado mountain town of Nederland with my kids, and started writing, performing, recording, and touring full-time. Life has never been better. I learned anew, what I had long-forgotten; that sharing my music with audiences was my "soul".
