Hello there, I'm a songwriter/guitar player who sings occasionally but who's main instrument has been the drums (studio drumming as well as varied performance situations) for the past 30+ years. I love all kinds of music and love creating it! Everything I do is usually "in house" by myself but if I need that certain sparkle I have access to great players in my musical community around me and can bring them in when the need arises.

Danny, So glad to see "Another Beautiful Life" under consideration. I love that song and your performance. What amazes me is the lack of drums. :) I can't thank you enough for all the things you taught me on protools. It has saved me thousands of hours. I would love to get together and enjoy a night sometime soon. Peace, brother.

Thanks Brian for the kind words. I just listened to "Country Alright" wow is it a good song! Lyrically, melodically, production wise and every other way exceptional. Congratulation on a great work there and for it being under consideration! Also thanks so much for adding "Angels in Waiting" to your playlist and for the 5 star rating. I REALLY appreciate the support.
with kindest regards to you,
