What type of guitar do you play?

A Taylor 815, made of spruce and rosewood. It's got a jumbo body, and responds well to delicate touch. I picked it up several years ago, when I was emersed in fingerstyle guitar, composing for the instrument and transcribing traditional music. For my songwriting, I find it has rich, full sound, unique from other guitars.

On your album "Dancing In The Rain" you're playing some electric guitar as well?

Yes. I found a Paul Reed Smith (PRS) guitar last year, and couldn't resist. It's used, not top of the line, but it still sounds exceptional. So the album has an acoustic sound, accentuated by electric riffs or lead guitar solos. The PRS worked really well.

Who are some of your guitar influences?

The best talents are not on MTV, nor on the radio. I prefer real musicians. Here are a few:

John Williams
Julian Bream ( A true ambassador of the guitar, also see bio at wikipedia)
John Renbourn
Charlie Byrd
Pat Metheny
Duck Baker
Stephen Stills
Tommy Emmanuel

Cool Waters
Dancing In The Rain
The Way To Free
