My concert photography is tempered by a lifelong love of music and concerts, crossing a diverse array of musical genres. My childhood was spent immersed in my parent's record collection of John Denver, Neil Diamond , Hank Williams Sr., Simon and Garfunkel, and Bob Dylan. At about age 12, my oldest brother turned me onto  "the loud stuff". Bands like, Black Sabbath, Alice Cooper, Kiss, David Bowie, and Rush. I was drawn to the theatrical performances of David Bowie, Kiss, and Alice Cooper, I was hypnotized by the otherworldly characters and tableaus these bands created.
