About me

I was born in Poland and moved to the USA when I was 8 years old. I took up guitar when I was about 12 years old. A few years later, in middle school, I started playing bass guitar because the band I had joined needed a bassist. The move to drums evolved over time, but I had always had an inclination towards rhythm, as the bass guitar is in essence a rhythm instrument. I started song writing sometime in my 20’s. I am now in my 40’s, I have 4 children, and we live in Colorado. While I do not play or write music as a career, I do enjoy it and believe that God has called me to it.

The Holy Bible

His brother’s name was Jubal; he was the father of all who played stringed instruments and pipes. (Genesis 4:21)

Sing praises to the LORD with the lyre, with the lyre and the sound of melody! (Psalm 98:5)

Praise him with sounding cymbals; praise him with loud clashing cymbals! (Psalm 150:5)

My own thoughts

When I play, I want to put forth 80% of my focus into listening, and 20% into playing the instrument
