About Me

..
I'm a singer/songwriter.
These are my home recordings.
Some of them were recorded in my own home.
Some of them were recorded in someone else's home.
They are intentionally raw.
I like them that way.
It's honest.
The news is that we've just recorded an EP at Grand Palace in Murfreesboro, TN.
It's a full-band thing, recorded on reel-to-reel,
and features some of Nashville/Murfreesboro's hardest working musicians.
Perhaps you may have heard of them:
DRUMS - Tyler Coppage (of Hammertorch, Shoot the Mountain, We Were The States, etc.)
UPRIGHT & ELECTRIC BASS - Spencer Duncan (of Turncoats, Cuttlefish, and a dozen others)
RHODES - Jason Harding (of Hammertorch)
DOBRO & PEDAL STEEL - Steve Daly (of Hammertorch, also Eric Zarycki & the Persuasion)
BANJO & GUITAR- Harlan Smith (of Rollo Greb, Page 80, and Tarnation)
*and a couple other very special guests*
We've just finished mixing with Brian Carter at Paradox Productions,
and it will soon be mastered, plated,
and pressed to 12" 180 gram audiophile vinyl
just for you.
It's a tentative Fall Release.
I encourage you to stick around to hear the finished product.
You'll be glad you did.
In addition to what you hear here, you may also be interested to know that I occasionally am asked to sit in on other bands' recording projects.
As a result, I can be found playing bass on two recently debuted albums: Blacklung & the Fiasco, as well as Rollo Greb.
Keep your ear to the ground for news & updates, or just drop on by to see what's what.
And as always...
Thank You for Listening.
