Experienced guitarist, vocalist, writer, performer. Active in bands and solo in NYC/Westchester area during lates 80s/early 90s. Some limited regional touring too.

Now living in UK.

Due to other priorities (family and work) stopped performing,playing and practicing in Summer 1995. Guitars sat in cases for over 12 years.

Recently started playing and collecting guitars again after nearly 10 years of hardly thinking about them!
These days you'll find me at the Cricks in Rowtown on Sunday nights.

Over the years, have had private study with Arlen Roth, acoustic fingerstyle with Woody Mann, Andy Polon, and the late, great Dave Van Ronk. Studied slide with Catfish Keith, Michael Messer and Bob Brozman.

Have opened for a range of artists from Richie Havens to Sue Foley to LIVE.

Looking to jam for fun. Email me at: jds_ct@hotmail.com
