About Me


I play music 'cause it makes me feel good. It might sound simple, but it's true.
I've had a pretty good run, so far. Worked with some good bands and great songwriters like Sheryl Crow, Morgan Heritage, Rob Thomas, India.Arie, The Weepies, Days of the New, Ky-Mani Marley, Dan Zanes, G.E. Smith, Trans-Siberian Orchestra and many others.
From time to time, I play with a lot of other great musicians/songwriters like: Brendan James, Mike Harvey, Laura Berman, Greg Tannen, Marc Von Em, Julia Brown, Tina Sugandh, Annie Keating, and a bunch of other talented folks...
