Band Members: Music does not define me as a person yet it is the main reason I am living, breathing, happy, and here in Los Angeles. I have played electric bass with Enrique Iglesias (40 million sold, 17 1's on Latin Pop Charts), Platinum artists Aly & A.J., Marc Tanner (Faith Hill, Journey, Alison Ray, Nelson, Kix, Eddie Money etc. one word describes him best: PASSION!) Unknown Boy, Stealing IV, and Soul Custody since moving from Northern Virginia (D.C. Suburb) in June of 2005. I have also performed in 8 music videos, a live DVD (sold worldwide) and CD USA T.V. show with Aly & A.J., The Carson Daly Show with Enrique Iglesias, session work for Marc Tanner, Unknown Boy, and Soul Custody.
Influences: My musical influences begin with Kerry Brown. Known him almost all my life played in a band with him in High School. He does research in the field of Neurosurgery these days and is still on of the most creative musical minds I know. Jaco Pastorious was the greatest melodic innovator of his time (late 70's) on the electric bass. I was in the practice rooms at school everyday trying to emulate him and eventually craft my own style of bass composition. I earn a living as a freelance bass player and Guitar/Bass Instructor in Los Angeles. HUGE thanks the Barry Squire for continuing to refer me to bands and offer me auditions.
