  • Bio

    I was born and raised in San Antonio, TX. I am a singer songwriter. I grew up playing clubs throughout Texas while in High School. I began writing when I was sixteen years old and fell in love with it. I decided to go to Nashville when I was 19 and landed a Management deal with Refugee Management, and a recording contract with Arista Records. What an amazing time that was. Soon after, I was signed as a composer to EMI Music Nashville. I was so blessed to travel the world throughout Europe, Asia, Central America, and of course the U.S. Over the years I was lucky enough to have many songs recorded by many of my favorite artists. Mark Chestnutt recorded two in “Angelina,” and “I’m Gone.” This was so great as I began my career singing George Strait and Mark Chestnutt songs. Soon after, Sara Evans recorded “I Thought I’d See Your Face Again,” on her No Place That Far CD. Rick Trevino recorded one of my favorites in “I Wish He Wouldn’t Treat Her That Way.” Emilio Navaira recorded “Life is Good” which later became the Miller Light Jingle and started the Life is Good campaign for Miller in Texas. Out of nowhere a duo out of Brazil, Gian & Giovani, recorded one of my Spanish songs “Yo Busco Una Estrella.” It was such a huge hit and it was number one for many weeks. What a blessing that has been!! One of my greatest moments was playing Austin City Limits with legends Freddy Fender and Flaco Jimenez. It was the first Spanish show ever aired on Austin City Limits. I also got to record a duo with Michael Martin Murphy with a live symphony, and being on stage with a hundred musicians sure sounded beautiful. A short while after I was asked to compose a song for the AIDS Foundation. I was honored to do so, and so I called a few friends in Bruce Bouton and Tommy Polk to lend a hand and we wrote a song called, “Let’s Not Look Away.” It was recorded by the Tejano greats Emilio, Ram Herrera, Jay Perez, Bobby Pulido, Joel Guzman, and I was happy to tag along as well. The album Canta La Vida was sold to raise money for the foundation. To my surprise I was called to join Chris Perez on his record to sing the harmony vocals for the Chris Perez Project, which later won a Grammy award. With all that being said I simply want to say that I am so grateful and happy to have the opportunity to share my songs and voice with all of you. It is such an awesome opportunity that all of my friends and fans have given me to share my life in song. It is always such an emotional process to put your heart on tape and open up your deepest and darkest emotions with the world. It is no surprise that after a long stay away from Home, I would look to record my first Spanish album back in San Antonio. I hope you like the record, and I look forward to meeting all of you in person very soon. Your friendship and support means the world to me. A dream is a lonely place to be if you are all alone. The constant messages and comments urging me on sure do keep me company on those sleepless nights. Thanks for the company, and I hope you enjoy the new music.
