I am a bass player/songwriter, and I was asked to play on a jazz project a few years ago.
That experience gave me the confidence to begin work on my own CD, which was released in Winter of 2007.
The title is HAVEN and it features 8 different Artists from Europe & The States.
HAVEN is available at CDBaby as well as iTunes & other major distributors.

Why this name?
Well, it's my first & middle name.
Do you play live?
I can't imagine not playing live.
You can usually find me around the Indianapolis area, at least once a week.

How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
I know it's made writing and collaborating so much easier.
I will work on building tracks and email them to people I'm working with, and they will add something and bounce it back to me.
I've collaborated with a gentleman in Belgium, and another in Italy.
That would not have happened without this format.

Equipment used:
I currently have 6 bass guitars.
Mainly I play my SGC Nanyo Bass Collection. It's an amazing instrument.
I also like the Lakland Skyline. A very unique sound
The Gallien Krueger 1001RB amp head is working well for me.
I run it into the GK RHB 4X10, or the GK RHB 1X15, depending on the room.
