About Me

Hey! Thanks for stopping by to visit my page. I'm a singer songwriter, and you'll find some of my stuff here. In addition, I play the fiddle, mandolin and sing with country artist Phil Vassar. Phil's got a new record coming out April 22nd, so I hope you'll check it out...I'm working like crazy right now on studio projects, also, ranging from putting fiddle on records to playing string quartet parts on songs. So, please feel free to let me know if you have a song that needs any extra parts! I do it all from my home studio, so it's a quick and easy process.Again, thanks for stopping by... I guess I'm supposed to list some bio stuff about me, so here are the highlights:Played Carnegie Hall at the age of 10. Began studying at the Juilliard School of Music at the age of 11. Studied with world renowned teachers of child prodigies, including Dorothy DeLay. Performed with the Nashville Symphony and Nashville Chamber Orchestra. Performed live and in the studio as a member of the Nashville String Machine; one of the world's premier studio orchestras. Former member of the country band Shiloh, which had a number one single on KZLA Radio. Appeared on recordings for artists such as Matchbox 20, Diamond Rio, Martina McBride, Tim McGraw and Phil Vassar. Performed with artists at the Academy of Country Awards, the Dove Awards and the Country Music Awards. Live and television performances with artists including Josh Groban, Alan Jackson, Steve Wariner, Jewel, Reo Speedwagon, Bret Michaels, Brooks and Dunn, Tim McGraw and Michael McDonald. Featured violinist on the Grammy Nominated Academy of Country Award live performance of Tim McGraw's 1 country single "If You're Reading This." Featured violinist on television music work for shows ranging from Entertainment Tonight to Dr. Phil and the Rachael Ray Show. ..... and now I can add Phil Vassar's utility guy to the list, playing fiddle, acoustic, mando, some keys and singing....
