About Me

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / White and gold guitar - Image Hosting

I grew up in Texas right outside of Houston in a little town called Katy. I moved to Nashville in the fall of 99 to attend Middle Tennessee State University. While in college I majored in the Recording Industry. I met my future wife Kim there and we were married in July of 2003. Since graduating I've had several jobs, road musician, insurance broker (which sucked) and substitute teacher (which sucked even more) to name a few. I've finally found a home at Broadcast Music Inc. My wife and I had our first child Noah in May of 2006. He was unexpected but most certainly a blessing. Being a dad has been the coolest and most rewarding experience of my life. Nothing else even compares.

I'm always looking for extra gigs around town so if you're here for networking here's a little more about me musically. I'm primarily a bass player and background vocalist. I'm also a decent rhythm guitar player. I'm well versed in many different styles of music. I currently play around 3 times a week in and around Nashville. I've done the road thing but really am just looking for extra spot work around town. If you want to talk music drop me a line, it's always good to meet new people and make new connections. Take care.

Below is a performance from Legend's Corner.

Why I Like President Bush

Yep, I'm the last one. The one and only. The one person who still likes President Bush. I liked him when he ran in 2000, I liked him after 9/11 and (gasp) I even like him after the Iraq war. I w...

Play Me Some Skynyrd!
