About Me

Hi, I'm Damon. I play saxophones, clarinets and flutes. I write music and I like to play music that I write. I also play for and with a lot of other people in different settings. This page is mostly about my music. If you would like to know what else I do, drop me a line."We Are Large" is my second CD as a leader. It has eleven original tracks that present my unique take on what jazz is. What does that mean? In today's music world, labels get thrown around all the time. It is hard to keep up, so to "give it to you straight" my music emphasizes melody, groove and communication. Four reasons why you should care: 1) you get to hear "Hill Country", my Salute to the year I spent in Houston, TX. 2) you get to check out Adam, Nate, Tim, and Evan. 3) someone once said my music had personality (See review). 4) someone also once said "you done wrong by me my man" (See website).
