Hey, thanks. It's good to be here. Glad to hear you're enjoying the tunes.
I studied classical piano for 13 years and majored in piano and composition in college. Started playing with synths in high school back in about 1972 (YIKES!). Played piano and synthesizers in a prog-rock band in Los Angeles back in the late 70's - early 80's. A whole Genesis/ELP/Supertramp/Cars power-pop thing. Spent several years in Ohio playing synths in a cover band in the mid-80's (Rush/Journey/Van Halen/etc.) After that, it was MIDI composing in the 90's (lots of music for video games that never hit, CD-ROMs, websites, and some radio/TV jingle work).
So I guess you could say I've been at it a little while.
In recent years, my "day job" really took off, so I don't have nearly as much time for my music as I used to. So it goes.
