I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm married, have 2 beautiful daughters, and am a guitarist, singer, and keyboardist. For me, the meaning of life is to maximize the joy I get from family, friends, music, and nature, while balancing all of the "have-to-do's". I've been in a number of bands over the years, which have all given me some great memories.
My latest band is Gladstone, which is the new incarnation of Photopsia, including original Photopsia members as well as a couple of new additions of former Mighty Electric members. Everyone in Gladstone seems to have been meant to play together, which is a common theme when you see musical projects become something special. It's hard to explain all of the connections, but essentially all 5 guys in Gladstone have been connected in one way or another through about 3 mutual musical projects for the past decade, and now Gladstone has finally risen from the growing fields.
So for the near future- watch for Gladstone shows and debut album "Paper Sky"! The album will be released in September/October. If you want to help us promote Gladstone, ask me how to add this banner below to your site/bulletins/comments, and THANK YOU for supporting your local music!:

Life is good

I don't have any profound philosophical musings to offer, but then again aren't most blogs just random ramblings of inner thoughts?  But I just want to go on record saying life is good.  If...
