I'm a full-time songwriter, producer, recording engineer and session musician with studios in Nashville and New York City. I specialize in working with singer/songwriters of all genres.
Cliff, Best wishes with the music. Thanks for visiting our MySpace site and being our friend. We hope that all is well in your life. Black Angel released our third album in two years on Earth Day April 22, 2009. It is called "O' San Francisco". We asked Tiffany Lowe, granddaughter of Johnny Cash and June Carter Cash (and daughter of country singer, Carlene Carter, and British rocker, Nick Lowe) to sing on the album. The top picture below is of Tiffany in the studio recording with us. The album is dedicated to a close associate of Black Angel who recently died who was a big Johnny Cash fan. We also have former Johnny Cash drummer, Danny Darling, playing on the album. We hope to be touring soon and we may be playing shows with former Black Angel singer, Audrey (Mrs. Ike) Turner. The bottom picture is of Black Angel playing at The Roxy in Los Angeles a few years ago with (left to right): Tomeka Haywood; me; Audrey Turner; and Ronnie Turner (son of Ike and Tina Turner on bass). Please check us out when we come to your town.

Hi Cliff, that was a great article, as I said, I have stories all day about having regional musicians try and cut parts and then bring in a pro -- night and day difference.
Funny, I was in Nashville for 12 years also. I just moved back to Washington State and do most of my session work and producing over the internet now.
We got to the point where we were doing more and more sessions by passing files over the internet and realized that I could move home with very little impact on my work load. Funny thing is, I'm probably busier since I moved! But I think it just worked out that way.
Anyway, nice to connect. Your work sounds great, keep it up.
