My musical influences are pretty eclectic. I like alt-country, bluegrass, classic country, country, some indie, and classic rock and hard rock. Some of my favorite artists are son volt, whiskeytown, gillian welch, be good tanyas, nickel creek, akus, uncle tupelo, norah jones, led zeppelin, and many more. Music to me has to be high quality, yet simple, not over done. I prefer acoustic instruments, natural sounds. i play the guitar and fiddle.
