Waiting for a female PARTNER, VOCALIST OR BAND: with that unique voice and special vision to see the commercial / artistic potential of a song that is currently a "work in progress"; who is able to suggest melody and lyrics where she feels they will improve a song; who is not a radio chart chaser; who, like all great song writing teams, refuses to let ego come between us; who is willing to share costs, copyright and Grammys; who is capable of writing as part of a team and having fun doing it...AND...expects all of the above from me as it relates to her songs.

My philosophy is that true musical collaboration is: 0% ego and 100% let go.
The simple demos on this page will ultimately come to life with the heart of the artist or band that records them...and makes them their own. The individual artist's interpretations and productions is what the songs will sound like. What is here as a pop song may ultimately be a hit acoustic pop, country or harder edge metal sound. No piano has ever written a song, recorded a song or interpreted a song. That is for the artist to do.
So is the case with my music...and the artists that work with me.
The human voice is the most important musical instrument.

WELCOME and Hello! Glad you took the time to visit. Please spend a few minutes and listen to a song or three of mine. I'm always happy to make new friends as well as read, listen to or to view the works of others........................................
ABOUT ME: I'm a male, straight, taurus, native of Manhattan New Yorker, songwriter / musician. I play bass and rhythm guitars (Rickenbackers). I have played the NYC and tri-state circuit with various bands and look to continue performing in bands.....................................................................................................
I'm best classified as a "pop" / "powerpop" / "rock" songwriter for the female artist and the female fronted band. My material: is radio friendly, readily accessible to a wide audience, pliable to accomodate many female artist's (band's) styles and venues, explores common themes and uses intelligent lyrics. I chose the three songs here at random from my collection. They only serve as examples of...my love of music, my art and of my style. JUST AS IMPORTANT, they offer your musician's ear the opportunity to explore your personal interpretations and how you might transform them into part of your and/or your band's continued musical success or future success. If you are a visiting soloist or a band, (signed or pursuing a recording contract) and would like to explore a serious musical collaboration with me, please do send an e-mail. I have no issues with being a 'ghostwriter' since some performers/bands might prefer this.
.............................................................................................ADDITIONALLY: I would very much like to collaborate with a serious female vocalist / songwriter to form a songwriting team. Please e-mail if you would like to talk about this type of collaboration, too...........................................................................................................
AND, I'm interested in having my (applicable) songs adapted for TV or MOVIES, possibly through an artist or a band.
Thank you for visiting and taking a listen. I Hope to hear from you soon... :)

SOME THINGS I BELIEVE IN: you; me; that it is happier to be sometimes cheated than not to trust; diamonds in the rough; all that is gold does not glitter; that even when all the 'experts' agree, they may still be wrong; listening to the other person's point of view; respecting other's art; speakers who listen; listeners who hear; that the only way to avoid mistakes and criticism is to do nothing; that fortune favors the bold (not the foolish); more.........................................................................................................
SOME THINGS I LIKE: positive people, NYC, squirrels, being a night owl, cherry pie, sunlight, recognition, coffee, friendship, love, lovemaking, writing songs and performing (often do writing in Saratoga, NY.), discovering the art (all types) of others, when others are moved by my songs, when others wish to use my songs, when I'm moved by the songs (art) of others, clean underwear, (or any underwear for that matter) more...
(Still deciding)....................................................................................................
SOME THINGS I DISLIKE: violence as a social event, anti-heroes, anything artistically Eastwood, Tarantino, etc. (but not the individuals), shorter daylight hours, elitism; public icons who by their endorsements /movies legitimize the otherwise grotesque, more
Still deciding....................................................................................................
For those who asked, I'm 5'10", 165 lbs.
