For more than 50 years I've been told that I am cut from the same stylistic cloth as Jorma Kaukonen, Taj Mahal, Mississippi John Hurt, Joseph Spence and the Davids Lindley & Bromberg...and that the souls of old Piedmond bluesmen and West Indian calypsonians visit me regularly bringing a sunny Caribe vibe to my fingerpickin' folkrock, ragtime jazz, cigar box guitar blues and original Americana repertoire to audiences young and old. An accomplished singer-songwriter, finger-style guitarist and seasoned performer, I also build wonderfully unique and quirky cigar box guitars under the aegis of "Dr. Easy's Sonic Boxes" from which I deliver my personal brand of tasty, slip-slidin' countryblues & smokehouse rock. So, grab yer kitbag and let's go for a romp!
