Thanks for stopping by! I've put up this website just to give people a little more info about me and what I'm up to.

Well, I recently returned from another "Dancing With the Stars" tour...
Once again, the band was killer, and the shows were great. One highlight was having the opportunity to play with "Mr. Las Vegas" himself, Wayne Newton. Wayne is one of the nicest artists I've ever had the pleasure to work with; It's inspiring to see that someone who's seen and done it all can still be so humble and down-to-earth.

Since finishing that tour, I've mostly just been doing recording sessions here in town. Lately I've been doing tracks for Warner Brothers recording artist MoZella, and independent artists such as Zoux and Kate Higgins. Their records should be out in the not-too-distant future, I'll be sure to keep you updated.

I'm now set up for remote recording, so if you need any bass tracks, don't hesitate to ask! I've been working on a new website centered on recording, called BassTracksOnline.com, and it's now up and running. Click HERE to check it out.

On a non-music-related note, on March 2nd I ran the Los Angeles Marathon for the first time. It was an amazing experience, and quite a test of my own physical limits. My finish time was 3 hours 55 minutes and 38 seconds, which put me in the top 10 percent of finishers. I don't mean to brag, but I was pretty stoked about that!

Well, that's about all I have to update you with at the moment... Feel free to stop by my GIGS page to see where and when I'm playing. Thanks for stopping by, hope to see you soon!
