I´m a fairly eclectic musician who has willingly experienced a wide variety of musical styles, mostly as a bassist. I've also had experience as a singer, songwriter, bandleader, producer, recording engineer, booking agent, press agent and finder of kindred musical spirits.
Other interests of mine have included reading, motorcycle riding, skydiving, printing, graphic arts, yoga, meditation and the ongoing study of Life, the Universe and Everything. I´m originally from Atlanta, GA and now reside in Nashville with my wife Robbie and our son, Gabriel.
Hello how are you? I just wanted to let you know that I have just finished producing a yoga, meditation & relaxation album titled “Surrender of The Mind”
Surrender of The Mind is written for those of us who need to get away. Maybe we have had a tough day at work. Maybe we have studied hard. Maybe we need to reflect on certain events in our lives. Maybe we just need a moment to clear our minds and re-set our mental strength. No matter what the reason is, there comes a time when we all need to surrender our minds.
This album takes you on a musical journey like no other. Capturing the ancient sounds of panpipes, tabla, bells, sitar and many other ambient resonances for those who wish to achieve a higher state of consciousness, greater focus and self-awareness through yoga & meditation, or simply to accomplish a more relaxed and peaceful state of mind.
I have attached a mini player for you to listen to a sample of the album so just press play to get away from this mad world we are living in.
The full version of Surrender of The Mind is available on all download sites including iTunes and Amazon.
Please let me know what you think of it, I look forward to your reply.
