"L.A. Dreams"
March 2014
My debut recording "L.A. Dreams" will be released early March 2014. It features original compositons, seven of which were written solely by me, one co-written with Jennifer Black and another co-written with Carl Verheyen.
The recording also features a stellar group of L.A.-based musicians: Randy Landas on bass, Jim McCarty on drums and percussion, Wally Minko on keyboards, and Rob Kyle on tenor saxophone and flute.
The music is inspired by my experiences growing up in Los Angeles. I've had the pleasure of meeting many people who've relocated here from different parts of the world, all in pursuit of their personal dreams. It's my hope that the music captures the energy and spirit of L.A., and the longings and dreams of my fellow Angelenos.
"Bad Moon Rising" video
March 2014
Here's a video the great singer/songwriter Jane Fuller and I recently taped of Jane's jazzy arrangement of the Creedence Clearwater Revival song "Bad Moon Rising". The video was filmed and edited by the brilliant Ron Johnston. Hope you like it!!!
Jim McCarty
March 2014
Drummer/percussionist extraordinaire Jim McCarty, who not only played on my recording but also co-produced it and engineered it, offers downloadable mp3s of the drums and bass from cover songs. They're recorded by pros following the exact arrangements of the original recordings...all styles, HIGH quality. I strongly encourage you to check out the website!! It's awesome!! http: www.drumandbasstracks.com
