About Me

Blessings from down the Louisiana Bayou!I haven’t lived hear all my life though. I was born and raised in Manitowoc, Wisconsin. [Hello Manitowoc!! (and Royal Knights) If you're reading this drop me a line!!] I've shoveled snow, ice fished a few times, and watched the Green Bay Packers win the first ever AFC-NFC Championship game now called the Super Bowl long before Packer fans were known as cheese heads.I’ve always loved music and it has been a part of my life as long as I can remember. From garage bands at high school dances to traveling through the Midwest playing lounges and nightspots. Finally settling in Texas starting a family, while working in the oil patch and listening to all that Texas swing. Now living in Louisiana, I’ve never been anywhere that I wasn’t involved in some kind of music and now I find that my calling is performing Christian music in churches and coffeehouses. What started out as recording a few songs I had written over the years, hoping to share them with my kids, turned into a much bigger project which culminated the CD "Are You Listening?". I hope and pray that there is something for you here in the music.

Also, I have a CD just out entitled Are You Listening? It consists of original songs and original arrangements of a few older songs all of which were recorded here in Houma at Digital Sac-a-lait Productions. All of the music is spiritual in nature with a message of hope. It was produced by Pershing Wells, a talented local musician/writer/producer, etc., who practices his craft here in Houma.
