I'm also influenced by all the great artists and players that I get to work with. Check out some of my work in the flash player to the right.
Here are some folks I’ve worked with in the last few years as a producer, engineer, mix engineer, or some combination of those three. I often sing BGVs, program, co-write, and play acoustic/auxiliary instruments on many of these projects as well. Check out my website for a more detailed discography:

I am first and foremost an artist and songwriter however most of my time these days is spent as a producer and engineer here in Nashville, TN. I have 10 years of experience in various aspects of the music business as a producer, studio engineer, live engineer, mix engineer, artist, songwriter, and road manager. I’ve worked in various roles with a wide range of musicians from independent artists to multi-platinum grammy winning artists. I’d like to think that my specialty and passion is artist development from the songwriting process to full album production. I utilize my own studio, contacts with various Nashville tracking/mix rooms, and healthy relationships with A-list session players. I work with artists at all levels of development and budget. Please check out my website for more info and consider these custom production services for your next independent project.

I get to make music with a lot of great people. I love what I do and thank God everyday for the chance to make my living as a musician. It is very rewarding to make my own art and help others make theirs. I hope to do a third solo record in the near future if I can find some time to record it. For now take a listen to some music from one of my older albums. Also, check out some of my top friends for links to a few great artists I’ve worked with recently. Thanks for visiting. Say hello.
