Music and art have always been two equal passions in my life.
The artwork that you see on this 'myspace' is my personal art. I work in soft pastel, or chalk-like medium on wood or board. I also sculpt, paint, work in graphics, etc.
Also, I am a drummer, percussionist, vocalist, keyboardist, bassist, arranger and composer, and I am currently very busy in three bands...
One is called 'The Producers (Heart and Soul)' featuring Mr. Regason's flowing lead vocals, John Seda's powerful guitar work, Uncle E's genious on bass guitar and keys, Fred Chandler's mind blowing violin, cello, mandolin, ukelele, and guitar work, and myself on drums and percussion. This band is a powerhouse of regaton, hip-hop, rock 'til you don't stop, world music. We just recently made eleven tracks of both score and song for a movie called 'Among Dead Men' released in California at the end of July, 2008.
Another band is called 'Cherry Weasel', which is a retrogressive blues-infused funk-a-delica. This band features WAZ on guitar and lead vocals, Glenn 'G-man' Dillman on bass and vocals, and myself on drums/percussion and lead vocals, as well. We have one cd out called 'evolution of...', and we are currently working on our second.
And the third band is called '18 footsteps'. We are mostly an instrumental band with a few lyrics here and there. In this band I play the bass guitar and sing lead vocals along with Shaun Berthlesdorf on drums, Jeff Svajdlenka on percussion, Tyson Peppers and D-Rail on guitars. We are also currently recording a cd and are very excited to show the world. We'll have a myspace for it as soon as the cd is finished.
I also do lead vocals for house/trance/techno music for a talented producer and engineer named Tyson77. ('Together Forever' in the song list is a good example of this work. We are also currently making a cd to go overseas.
The music on this space that you're listening to is either my own creation, the many bands I perform with, or it could just be a jam with any of the many musicians that come to my studio to express themselves.
I hope that you like what you see and hear.
Thanks for using your senses.
