Singer/Songwriter/Music Producer
My music is heard on radio, in feature films, tv shows, and in international commercials.
I bought my first guitar at fourteen with money I earned as a busboy and quit the following day, immediately drawn to writing my own songs after learning a few chords. That first song, “Wet Smoke,” came from watching low fog drift past my window, and while it wasn’t very good, it marked the beginning of a lifelong focus on songwriting and recording. I started out as a songwriter in an original band that quickly gained attention from Columbia Records, leading to the recording of “The Mass for Shut-ins,” but like many early opportunities in music, that path eventually ran its course. To make a living, I began performing cover songs in bands, which taught me how great songs are built and why they connect with audiences night after night, shaping my approach as a writer and producer. I create emotionally driven music for film, television, and advertising, recorded with professional musicians in the studio, while also reshaping classic rock songs for a new generation of listeners and visual media. I’ve never been easily compared to other recording artists, which can make me harder to categorize—but it also means I don’t fit into a lane, I build my own.
