About Me

Lived in about 7 states before the age of 3. Grew up in Baton Rouge, where I was forced to try and survive 12 years of catholic schooling (traumatic to say the least). Was into soccer, music, martial arts and girls. Inherited my first car at age 16, a '66 mustang that I miss everyday. Studied English and Music at LSU, and eventually finished with a degree in creative writing (not that I'm giving you a decent example of that talent here). Worked as a bassist in several bands before moving to New York in 2005, where I worked with 3 bands for nearly a year under the watchful eye of George Stein (Lou Reed/Jeff Buckley/B52s/Kristin Diable). After that stint I transferred back to Baton Rouge and began working with RCA recording artist turned producer, Tracy Civello. My current music projects include The Prescriptions , Elsah , and Kristin Diable from time to time. Here's some other links to bands and musicians I've worked with Paul Johnson , Poor Harvey , The Undisputed Heavyweights , Lowry , Liz Clark , Tabby Thomas , and Chris Thomas King (Grammy Winner).

My Interests

Myself in a dark alley so I could fight myself and see who'd win.
