I’m a professional musician specializing in rock and blues since 1975. I’ve spent my entire life surrounded by music—recording eleven rock and roll albums in Brazil and performing as a supporting act for legendary bands like Deep Purple, Jethro Tull, and Nazareth. I’ve also played in festivals alongside artists like Faith No More and other prominent American and British bands. Now at 60, I’ve moved to Florida to enjoy this next chapter of life with grace. But music remains a big part of who I am, and I feel it’s time to pass on my legacy to the next generation. I have two kids, aged 12 and 14, who already play multiple instruments and sing. I’ve been giving private lessons here in Jacksonville, though my reach has been limited—and I’d love the chance to expand. I grew up in a studio; my father was a bluesman in New Orleans and played several instruments himself. Music runs deep in my family, and I'm passionate about sharing everything I’ve learned over the years.
