About Me

I have become burned out on bios and resumes. Here's the deal. I live for experiences. Music has brought me to all of these: 4 years of eating, sleeping, and breathing my upright bass. A Warehouse with nothing in it. Throwing a white electric bass across a room. New Orleans saying goodbye to me. Venice looking like where I left. Nasvhille telling me it would be ok. I am currently ripping it in Bobby Lee Rodger's band, The Codetalkers, and freelancing around the Southeast when my schedule permits. I love everyone who has shared these experiences with me. That's it for now! CHECK OUT THIS JAZZ NIGHT VIDEO FROM OUTLOUD!
