ABOUT

I produce music.  I compose, present, perform, and record music as a solo artist, as CEO of PARMA Recordings, with Dreadnaught, as former Board Chair of The Music Hall, and others.  From time to time I write a bit about making music, travel, the places I work, and the place where I live.  Big Angela Lansbury fan here.

“I love your version of ‘The Backward Swan.’ I listened to the tracks on your album and found them to be very creative and extremely good...

I loved being taken on a musical journey with surprises like you have in the songs as these tracks unfold." - Guitar legend Duane Eddy
