About Me

I'm a freelance writer based in Nashville, TN, who specializes in writing press and marketing materials for musicians and the music industry.

I've written artist bios and press releases for compaines large (Warner Bros., Universal Music) and small (Dualtone, Oh Boy, Compadre).
Some of the artists I've written bios/press releases for include John Prine, Paul Thorn, Brett Dennen, Stoll Vaughn, Darrell Scott, John Cowan, Ray Scott, Mark McGuinn, Tresa Jordan, Corinne West, Kim Richey, Scott Carter, Cross Canadian Ragweed, Abra Moore, Mike Ferris, The Greencards, Riders In The Sky, Suzy Bogguss, Bruce Robison, Leahy and many more.
As a journalist my writing has appeared in Music Row Magazine, American Songwriter, Chattanooga Style, Style615, Citysearch.com, Countrycool.com, CMA Close Up Magazine, American Profile and more.
Recent project include helping rewrite the Gaylord Hotels websites and develop and implement a new brand strategy for them.
I'm the former publisher/managing editor of blink magazine. We had a nice run back in 1997-98 covering the music and sports scene in Nashville. Met many cool, wonderful people and bands. Good times, good times.
Upcoming projects include the launching of an entertainment company that will handle marketing and publicity for the creative arts (musicians, etc.) as well as a music publishing company.
