Where do I begin? Well, I grew up in the Palisades and have always enjoyed singing along with the radio and participated in the choir and madrigal groups all through grade school. I'll never forget working with Linda Badran and caroling through the Getty Museum (the one near the ocean). At 16 I picked up the guitar and have been writing music ever since. For more than 20 years I have worked with great players such as Eric "Ace" Asa-Dorian, Mark Segal, Mike Rockwell, Mike Day, Matt Peterson, Paul Rustigian, George Radai, Paul Varosy, Jerry Jones-Haskins, Dave Martin, Kwan Hearns, and Richard Dry. You may not know who these people are, but they have had a very strong influence on me and my various approaches to writing, arranging, performing, and recording.
My most prolific periods have always been when I was in pain, usually related to a failed relationship. However, I have realized that I don't really want to talk about that any more. I've learned that peace and love and happiness are what I want. And through my music I want to express hope, and faith, and joy! I want to be happy and I want to bring the rest of the world up with me! Will you give it a try? Set aside your cynicism and 20th century zeal and chill... Flow with what IS wonderful and we will create an amazing existence!
