One particular track near and dear to my heart is my testimony song, entitled “Love Found Me.” I performed this song with bandmates Brian MacLean (bass) and Nate Lavoie (drums). Matt Goss, from LCBC Church in Lancaster, PA, produced it. Matt and I had met through a mutual friend, and this was our first project together, created in 2004. Through all of these band experiences, I have been blessed beyond belief. It’s been truly incredible to be able to meet so many amazing p

Dana Point. San Clemente. Capistrano Beach, California. I recently received an invite from a previous client whose guests LOVED the music I had played. I had walked around their outdoor beach banquet the previous year, surveying guests personally… picking their brains for their favorite songs. I played requests almost the entire time, mixing in just a few of my originals on guitar, while my cameraman captured all of the fun highlights. I played everything from easy listen

This blog-post is dedicated to a song I spontaneously recorded last spring and eagerly placed on the Closer Walk album called "Oh You Can." "Oh You Can" is most definitely a song about God. Go ahead and click below. Writing this song was pure joy! Perhaps one of my most inspiring moments in the studio ever, I wrote this song in less than 5 minutes. As a matter of fact, what you hear in this recording is exactly that. It's me writing the song, "Oh You Can" on the spot! I

In addition to providing music for all kinds of parties and special events throughout Vegas and Los Angeles, I am also a full-time music teacher at Cortez ES here in Las Vegas (where we currently reside). No matter what happens in my life or where life leads me, I will always remember this amazing school as the place where I became a choir director. I first developed the choir last spring and was soon blessed to lead them in their debut performance for a HUGE supply drive at

One of my favorite gig types is surprise engagements. I was recently brought in to sing a pair of tunes for a lovely couple on the coastal cliffs of La Jolla, California. The gentleman who was proposing had a really cool idea. He tasked a balloon specialist to make a tiny house which resembled the house from the animated movie, "Up." The near exact replica sat beside me on the rocks with a cluster of colored balloons fastened to its rooftop. A crowd of onlookers who seemed in

Hey friends! Thanks for tuning in. Last time I shared about the first two gigs I did in Vegas. It was a pool party and a real estate open house that helped me get established here. I was able to earn a strong recommendation from both venues, which gave me some affirmation about my future here as a hired musician. Since then, I’ve been travelling back and forth throughout the stony hills of California and performing more than ever before (when I’m not teaching music)! In th
