Who He Is: Solo artist, session musician, songwriter, producer, instructor and one of Guitar World’s “Greatest Texas Guitarists of All Time” [Holiday 2022 issue].

New Jersey derives much of its water from New York’s Catskill Mountains. Low in calcium and magnesium, it’s a naturally soft water that’s ideally suited for bread flour. And, of course, that means it’s also a crucial component in the making of New Jersey pizza, which everybody knows is the best in the United States. (Oh, you wanna argue about it? How about this? Fuggedaboudit!)
