I'm a progressive metal solo artist, as well as an eclectic performer of everything from Sinatra to Sabbath. I like it all, but my writing has typically been progressive or power metal with science fiction themes. "Ancient Signs", "Sea of Stars", and "Gods and Machines" represent my prog-power metal leanings.
Lately, however, I've been writing old 40s through 60s style classic jazz vocal material. "Dreamland", "Holiday of Love", and "Little Miracles" are original songs of mine that represent these styles.
I wrote, played, and sang everything on every song on this page.Have you performed in front of an audience?After a long hiatus, I've been playing live again around the Los Angeles area.
I do a one-man show, billed under my own name, where I can play/sing everything from old jazz classics to thrash metal, and anything in between. I tailor the music to the audience for each show, but most audiences enjoy the variety.
