Surf’s up! Probably one of the most beguiling anthems from the 60s, this song captures the pure joy of a sun-soaked beach and the carefree spirit of the era. It marked the beginning of my guitar education back in the day, and I’m sure many others share that sentiment. There's something magical about the infectious backbeat of guitars and bass that never fails to lift my spirits. Whether it’s the sound of waves crashing or the rhythm of the music, it brings back memories of warm sand between my toes and laughter shared with friends. It's a timeless celebration of summer and the thrill of riding the waves, and I never tire of its vibrant energy!

Having spent my career as an illustrator, I have always sidelined as a student of music. I play both guitar and piano, and my discovery of the extraordinary capabilities of DAW software opened up a natural path for me into composition. My inspiration has come from a diverse array of great performers ranging from Verdi to the Zombies, the Beatles, Henry Mancini, and Mark Knopfler, among many, many others. The wealth of musical influences I’ve encountered has fueled my creativity, allowing me to blend visual artistry with melodic expression. Growing up in such a vibrant musical era has been a tremendous gift, shaping my artistic identity and pushing me to explore the limitless possibilities of sound.

Headphone listening is a plus.

“What makes a song is the singer, while what makes a singer is their dedication to music and their inner feelings.”   Dimash Qudaibergen

I have enjoyed music for as long as I can remember and cannot remember a day of not either singing or listening to music. I am self-taught when it comes to playing guitar but what I most enjoy is singing which I have been doing since around age 18. Now retired singing and playing the guitar is now just a hobby and something I do to help pass the time. Have always  loved the sound of a Martin guitar. Currently been playing a Road Series DR S2 for about 6 years. Thanks for listening. I also enjoy discovering the sounds of other talented musicians and singers here on SoundCloud.

“Cualquier cosa es un camino entre un millón de caminos. Por tanto, un guerrero siempre debe tener presente que un camino es sólo un camino; si siente que no debería seguirlo, no debe permanecer en él bajo ninguna circunstancia. Su decisión de mantenerse en ese camino o de abandonarlo debe estar libre de miedo o ambición. Debe observar cada camino de cerca y de manera deliberada. Y hay una pregunta que un guerrero tiene que hacerse, obligatoriamente:
¿Tiene corazón este camino? Todos los caminos son lo mismo: no llevan a ninguna parte. Sin embargo, un camino sin corazón nunca es agradable. En cambio, un camino con corazón resulta sencillo: a un guerrero no le cuesta tomarle gusto; el viaje se hace gozoso; mientras un hombre lo sigue, es uno con él” - Carlos Castaneda (del libro “Las enseñanzas de Don Juan”)

singer-songwriter/guitarist /composer/arranger. I do everything about making songs by myself.  Basically my music consists of acoustic guitar playing and vocals, but now I’m trying to make it sounds  more catchy and enjoyable for today’s listeners.
