Born Dennis Ray Deem and baptised Dionysus Raymond he bought a Ukelele after saving up money from working on the farm at the age of seven.  From then on he knew music was in his veins.

"It's the Gypsy in me...."  He says refering to the fact that he has been traveling since he was a baby and has been driven to furiously playing guitar non stop during his life.  Recently Seattle is the center of the artists life style.

"I love the Northwest, well actually I love the whole country.."  Settling in the Northwest, came like everything else as an act of faith.  "Seattle, is one of the places you can enjoy like a country experience and also have the advantages of the big city.  But you have to like the rain to live here."  He does like the rain and the shores and everything else including the big mountain that comes and goes when ever it feels like it.

"I think I bring a variety to the music scene.  Like the variety of nature surrounding us here in the Seattle area.  Spanish instrumentals to Blues and a lot in between for the listening pleasure of friends and family."
