"Independence Volume 1: demos and out-takes is an outpouring of emotions and feelings. It is a live wire, straight-to-the-bone collection of well-versed, living and breathing lyricism, timeless melodies, and rough and tumble experiences played out in a menagerie of influences incorporating folk, rock, and Americana into their first-take, go-with-the-flow demeanor. It is as raw as it is passionate, as clean as it is dirty, and as loose as it is groovy. It truly is the sound of independence!" - Alex Steininger - In Music We Trust
Heart Surgery Was A Success!
I want to thank all of my family, friends, fans and concerned strangers that all came to my financial, emotional and physical rescue and helped me through this last year. I had the surgery Wednesday September 17th and it went off without a hitch. I am so happy to still be standing and I have a new lease on life. My belief in community and my soul has been filled with optimism on all fronts because of everyones' genereous and unconditional support. You all just blow my mind!! PEACE AND LOVE! JW 09/27/08
I've been playing music and recording albums for over 20 years. My past bands include The Watchmen, Perfect Circle, Dharma Bums (PopLlama/Frontier) and Pilot (Mercury/Elektra). I live in Portland Oregon and like collaborating with friends and producing music and film from my studio MastanMusic in lower SE Portland.My websites are:
The latest CD is called Independence Vol. 1: demos and out-takes. Spanning the genres of folk, blues, gospel and rock, I wanted to share with folks different types of music I make and also show how viable any type of recording format can be. This is one album put together from unreleased recordings I used many different recorders including a cassette 4-track, multiple digital programs and there's even one song from a 24 track 2" session.
I am very excited about the Podcast that I am producing. Click the image to find out more!

This is a brand new video of me playing with my rock band Sam Densmore - guitar, vocals Simon Milliman - bass, vocals and Ezra Holbrook - drums, vocals. This was filmed and recorded live on my birthday 08/08/08 from Kelly's Olympian in downtown Portland for The MastanMusic Hour - Club Showcase. The sound is great because we recorded with a multitrack and re-mixed etc. Hope you dig. SONG: Compartment In The City.
