Started at age 10. Guidance counselor suggested to my Mom that it would be good for me. My first gig was the 7th grade dance. In 1980 Harlette formed. Having Ray Gillen on vocals was amazing. He went on to sing with Black Sabbath and his own band Badlands.In the 90's alot of gigs with different bands in NY and NJ. In 2009 I joined Completely Unchained. It was a sucessful tribute band for Van Halen.We played many nice theaters and outdoor shows plus casino work. We went to Kuwait and played for the troops that was amazing. In 2000-2008 I worked at Gigantic Music. That was really great for me. I loved helping the artists get the sound and equipment to get a solid recording In 2018 went back to local shows and a full time job. I worked with several bands also doing fill-ins. 2010-2018 played every Sunday open mic. Met alot of great people. Great way to test yourself and your band.
