Bio:
I am a worship leader and the director of worship arts at the Journey Church of Santa Maria, California. We have a very talented group of musicians that God has given me to shepherd and to make music with. I sing and play guitar, keyboards and bass. My main guitars of choice are Fender Stratocasters and Telecasters. I process the signal with Boss effects which I send through a Fender Hot Rod DeVille amplifier. I play a Yamaha P-90 digital piano through a Roland keyboard amp. My worship team plays modern contemporary praise and worship with a few re-arranged hymns, as well as original worship songs written by myself and or other members of our music ministry team.
I love all styles of music. Before coming to know Jesus as my Lord and Savior, I played in different bands varying in styles from Blues and Classic Rock to Hard Rock and Punk, as well as Southern Rock, Metal; Reggae; R&B and Country.
Some of my favorite artists still to this day: ERIC CLAPTON; STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN; BUDDY GUY; JIMI HENDRIX; ROBIN TROWER; SANTANA; THE HELLECASTERS; JOE SATRIANI; SCORPIONS; VAN HALEN; LED ZEPPELIN; BOB DYLAN; BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN; JOHNNY CASH; CROSBY, STILLS & NASH; EAGLES; FLEETWOOD MAC; BEATLES; KISS; PINK FLOYD; QUEEN; BOSTON; RUSH; THE CARS; STYX; JOURNEY; THE POLICE; RAMONES; THE CLASH; U2; DAVE MATTHEWS BAND; GOO GOO DOLLS; AUDIOSLAVE; SOUNDGARDEN; FOO FIGHTERS.
Although I still like secular music, I have to say that I have found that Christian music touches me like no other genre. So you will more than likely find me 90% of the time listening to either Modern Praise & Worship, Contemporary Christian, or Alternative Christian Rock.
Some christian artists I enjoy: CHRIS TOMLIN; MATT REDMAN; MERCYME; DAVID CROWDER BAND; PASSION WORSHIP; TIM HUGHES; JEREMY CAMP; CHARLIE HALL; HILLSONG WORSHIP; BIG DADDY WEAVE; CASTING CROWNS; LINCOLN BREWSTER; TREE63; TODD AGNEW; JARS OF CLAY; KUTLESS; SONICFLOOD; SANCTUS REAL.
