About Me

Here is the latest batch of songs recorded in my home studio - The Dozier Lab. Except where noted I wrote, sang and played all the instruments myself. Most of the drums are programmed from scratch or built upon loops.

Joining me on 'Hurts me like a child' is the wonderful Elysa Gomez on lead vocal. Also of note is my buddy Schmed playing strings and guitar on 'Holidays.'

The songs are from the heart and were created for no other reason than self-expression. I hope they will mean something to you.

Dilate your mind...'Zuma
