Bruce spent much of his youth either on boats or on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay. He
started writing at an early age and in his teens began combining his words to the music that he
was composing on both the piano and the guitar. In his early 20's he set out on the road and
spent a number of years traveling around the country writing songs and performing in any
tavern or coffee house that would have him. The many out of the ordinary situations and
characters that he encountered during those years give him an insight into life that few people
possess. This unique combination of creativity and individualism is reflected in his songs which are
sometimes funny, sometimes sad, sometimes ambiguous and sometimes charged with emotion. The
one constant that they all share is Bruce's distinctive view of the world and the obvious fact that they
were all written from the heart.
When the time came to settle down Bruce returned to the shores of the Chesapeake Bay. He founded
two companies, "BRM (Boat Rock'n Music) Records" and "Heeled-Over Publishing." Out of the more
than 160 copyrighted songs that he has written it was only natural that a number of them would be
influenced by his love of boating in general, sailing in particular, and basically just being out on the
water. His debut CD entitled, "Stinkpot & Rags," exemplifies both his love of the water and his skills as a
singer/songwriter. Many others are discovering his talents as well and in 1998, Bruce and his crew were
the featured performing act in welcoming the sailboats of the, "Whitbread ‘Round the World Sailboat
Race," to Baltimore's famous Inner Harbor. He also provided the entertainment at a press release party
which was held to announce the event. The party featured such dignitaries as the Governor of Maryland
and The Mayor of Baltimore City, as well as a host of other elected officials, business leaders and media
people from around the world. He has been featured on the WMAR morning news program, "Wake Up
Baltimore," in the "Baltimore Sun," Newspaper and many other smaller publications. In that same year
he also had small roles in the John Waters' film, "Pecker," and the critically acclaimed television show,
"Homicide, Life On The Streets."
Although Bruce now spends much of his time promoting his recording he still sails the Chesapeake,
finding inspiration for new songs in every cove and creek that he explores.
