About Me
I’ve been recording, writing and playing music for some time now. I’ve been in bands, had major and indie label record deals (BMG/Zoo, Parasol, Glitterhouse) and have searched for many great things in music. I know what it’s like to make a record...............If you have ideas, but don’t know how to complete them, I can help you with that (I play piano, guitar, bass, program drums, etc). I also have access to a host of other musicians who can play anything from violin to pedal steel...............If you’re already a musician and know exactly what you’re going for, then I can sit back and help you with that as well. More than anything, I can help you get your musical ideas on tape or hard drive (or whatever’s next).................I’m currently working out of Blaise Barton’s "Joyride" studios. I’ve worked with Blaise for the last ten years. He’s mastered or recorded every record I’ve worked on since 1997. I’m happy that I can be a part of helping people work in a way that Blaise has helped make working on projects easy for me (technically things are great and it’s a laid back environment where you don’t feel like you’re chasing the clock… ever)...............I look forward to helping you with your future project................Bands or artists produced, recorded, mixed or written with:The Saps, 8" Inch Betsy, Magic Slim and the Teardrops, Honeyboy Edwards, Chick Rodgers, Eddie Taylor Jr., Victory Records (Guitar Hero mixes for The Sleeping, Bayside, Atreyu), Casey Jones, Ballistic Edna feat: The Dictionary, The Great Crusades, Last Gentlemen, Steve Pride and his Blood Kin (featuring Jay Bennett of Wilco), Reaction Formation, Sugarbuzz, Autoliner, Sleeper, Nick Rudd, Keiran Brandabur,Black Tiger, Number One Sons, The Norwood Park Punk Allstars, Angela Mullenhour, Tim Hort, Tammy Harris, Hipgnosis, Kathyjo Warden, Eric Mantel, Brown Liquor, Bill Amedee, Donna Adler, Mad Science Music Beds, Brian Krumm, 50 Pound Head, Somersault Factory, Tom Curless, The Nutes, Stella Katsoudis, etc...............Also: Musical Director and musician at the Steppenwolf in The Chicago Children’s Theatre production of Dandelion Wine, and movie soundtracks for “Last Cigarette†and “The Realitorâ€...............I am also a member of the band The Great Crusades (check out the website to see what I do there, www.thegreatcrusades.com)I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V4.4
