Music

I front two recording and soon-to-be performing acts.

Life Love Misery” is an alternative rock group featuring a string quartet.  I am the lead singer-songwriter that wrote all the string arrangements and produced this sonically sound 10 song release with my two band mates and production partners, drummer Ken Stavropolous (Starship, Cacaphony) and bassist Mario Previti (of the legendary Plant Studios).

Sayla Dobro” is my Dobro playing alter-ego.  The tex-mex sounds that come about when you mix the Dobro with a vintage Yamaha Synth Accordion patch, a Cuban Tres, and a Casio drum machine are a “lo-fi must hear”. I play every instrument on these recordings and produced them in a make-shift project recording studio in my former residence garage in Northern California.

Over the years I have played on, engineered, and produced many recordings. Stay tuned for my discography.
