I'm a filmmaker, music producer, publisher, journalist and longtime screamer with the band The Marshmallow Overcoat. (Check out a song from our new 2008 album, "The Light Show," on the left side of this page!) Our double CD/DVD "best of" set is also available! I was also frontman for THE PURPLE MERKINS, with lots of 45s and an album (available now as a CD). I produce other garage-psych groups, and have been an A&R guy for record labels.
I'm also the author of both the print version and DVD version of THE KNIGHTS OF FUZZ, documenting the neo-garage explosion since 1980. I've also written hundreds of features and reviews for newspapers and magazines worldwide. For years some have called me "The Guru of Garage," and for that I am grateful. :)
'66-styled GARAGE & PYCH ROCK, BABY! If you've read any of my garage books or feature columns or reviews (or heard any of my records), you know I'm in LOVE with hundreds of current and classic garage combos. Nothing is as cool as hearing a new cool '66 garage fuzzadelic song FOR THE FIRST TIME!
