I love friends, food, places and culture. I am an artist and songwriter - an idealist - inventive - athletic - and open minded; always willing to go searching for a great meal with good fellowship and conversation; grew up on the good book, Arthurian legend, the outdoors, studying music, and am inspired by nobel character, and interested in social justice.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've written and recorded almost 50 original songs with bands - Blind Autumn, The American Captain, and Tall Tales of Truth - and have attended the Grammy awards!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm very interested in social commentary, and in producing musical content with an honest and reflective quality of character; in exploring a sound of journalistic voice, horns, and deep strings; in creating songs that act as articulate article pieces, documenting the mood and state of our society, and shaping those songs to be a whistleblower, to teach, to inspire, and to simply represent the people and our culture; in looking for musical substance, playing with boarder lines, and discussing topics and ideals of humanity and our nation, while considering the vision for the world—dream vs. the reality of the past, present, and future.
