About
- I'm a songwriter looking to collaborate with other like-minded songwriters.
- I'm a producer/composer looking for songwriters and singers to work with.
- I'm a singer who writes songs. I am looking for musicians/composers/producers to help complete my songs.
I am also a serious songwriter and a skilled lyricist - for years I have been a member of the Austin Songwriters Group, and I was active in the singer songwriter scene when I lived in Texas.
Currently, I make my living as a Producer in the advertising industry - recording and editing voice overs and mixing music to produce radio spots. I mostly work remote - I have a fully featured home studio and audio work station. I have excellent production skills and equipment.
Mostly, I am looking for a collaborator because I appreciate the energy and enthusiasm that 2 creative partners can generate!
Thanks for checking me out!

Dreams & ambitions
I am looking to create art of lasting artistic value - I know how to write a commercial cut, but I am most interested in music that stirs the soul and evokes emotion.
My ultimate goal is to sell one of my (our!) songs to a successful recording artist. Having a hit would be nice also!
I think about music and audio production all the time, it's more than a pastime or a living... it's my life!
Equipment
I am a professional bass player, but I do not currently have a gig (Covid...) and I also play (what I call) a tenor guitar. Which is basically a 4-string acoustic bass, but strung high so that I can play chords. It's fun and it helps me to write. The bass is not that useful when it comes to writing... except for basslines!
I play keyboard, which I use to compose music. I am expert at using the iPad to make music - I feel that its utility as a musical instrument is still in its infancy and that it is not widely understood as a musical creative tool.
I use Pro Tools for production, mainly, but also GarageBand, Adobe Audition, Sound Forge and Audacity.
I am an audio engineer, so I use stuff like iZotope RX9, iZotope Ozone, etc. I do not do any mastering work, but I know how.
