Curtis Mechanuck

Story

Elementary school teacher, husband, and father who has been making music since high-school; sitting in my basement with my first guitar, the "new" U2 album - "Rattle and Hum", and it's chord book, teaching myself how to play. I played in various bands from the early 90s until 9-10 years ago. I have also been a worship leader in church for over 2 decades. I now enjoy the creative process of writing and recording music in my secret lair in the basement and sharing it for the few of you that give it a listen! I love to collaborate and have others contribute their musical skill to whatever I'm working on.
