About Me

I've been playing and writing music for 13 years. Learning how to play, growing up in Cincinnati, listening to BB King and Stevie Ray Vaughn recordings, and playing everything I heard.Finding a musical foundation in the blues, I moved into the mid-90's acoustic scene; learning the licks and techniques of everyone from DMB and Phish, to Clapton.During college, in early 2003, I formed the band 'East of Center' with Adrian Sevin and Phil Kuestner. We played shows and wrote music for the better part of 2 years in Northern Ohio. It was there where my songwriting took shape and direction. During that time, Adrian and I co-wrote 'Open Your Eyes' and 'Blank Stare', which you find on the 2006, 'Live at Liberty Heights' EP. In early 2007, I released my Independent debut album, 'Ludlow to Ash'. The album was recorded at the Grove Studios in Phoenix, AZ, and co-produced by Phoenix based producer Chad Turner.Children of Darfur - Produced by Jonny O./Music- "Let Love Set You Free" by Justin Halpin
