Thanks for
stopping by!
I've put up
this website
just to give
people a
little more
info about me
and what I'm
up to.
2012 was one
of my busiest
years
music-wise,
and so far
2013 has
proven to be
just as good.
The studio has
occupied much
of my time
this year,
with some
really fun
projects. I
just recorded
an album with
guitarist Jeff
Golub, and the
rhythm section
was rounded
out by drummer
Steve Ferrone
and
keyboardist
Brian Auger.
Man, that was
a fun one...
the album will
be released
sometime this
summer. I've
also done a
couple records
with some
independent
artists, I'll
have those up
on my discography
page as soon
as they're
released. Aside
from sessions
around LA,
I've very much
been active in
the world of
remote
recording, so
if you need
any bass
tracks, don't
hesitate to
ask! You can
contact me
through this
site, or check
out my
recording
website, BassTracksOnline.com.
Hot off the
presses! I got
be a part of a
few cool
videos
recently, and
they all
seemed to get
released at
once. Click on

On the live
side, I've
been doing
some touring
with
saxophonist
Mindi Abair,
as I'm now
into my third
year as a
member of her
band. In
between her
outings, I've
been doing
some gigs in
LA with
artists such
as Elliott
Yamin
(American
Idol) and
Brandon Rogers
(also of
American Idol
fame), as well
as lots of
fill-in gigs
with various
folks. I'll be
in town mostly
during April
and May, then
will be
hitting the
road in June
for another
Summer tour
with Sony
Music
recording
artist
Victoria
Justice. Check
out my
GIGS
page to see
the schedule.
...
And I'm
pleased to
announce that
my debut solo
album, "Let
the Games
Begin..." is
still
available.
Check out
the
PRESS
section of
this website
to read what
people are
saying! I can
best describe
it as
instrumental
funk, with of
course a lot
of focus on
the bass.
Right now it's
available for
download
on iTunes, and CDs are available through CD Baby, Amazon, and Abstract Logix. I've got clips up on my
SOUNDS
page, let me
know what you
think!
Well, I've
babbled on
long enough...
Feel free to
stop by my GIGS page to see where and when I'm playing. Thanks
for stopping
by, hope to
see you soon!
