I play piano and sing, write, arrange, and produce. As far as styles, call me a singer/songwriter who embraces modern electronic while tipping my hat to jazz and r&b. Can't just pick a style...eh?
I've recorded three albums:
The first is self-titled and stays accurate to the previous statement about style.
The second, called "Slow Burn", was co-written and recorded with my friend Face. This album is definitely an electronic album, blending house and r&b.
My third album, “Losing My Grip”, was co-written, performed, and produced by fellow musicians Dave Barnett, John Martinez, and Mike Medina. This album is definitely a musical journey. Call it an R&B/rock/jazz/alternative crossover.
Some other stuff about me, just in case you were wondering...I like to draw, not very well, but I like it. I like to take pictures. I like to garden. I like sci-fi movies, high dollar and B. I like red wine....very, very much. I admire other artists, be it musicians, painters, sculptors, dancers. I hate talking on the phone. I'd rather talk in person. I need alot of alone time. I like to travel. I love cats.
