ABOUT

From my Bio:
Don first found his love for playing guitar when he was 14. He started his first band soon after and played in and around the NYC area where he was born and raised. Work brought him to Dallas Texas in 1984 where he continued to play in various bands and local venues. God captured and transformed his heart in 1990. Seeing music as a gift and wanting to offer it back in purity, he put his instruments away rather than continuing to play the same old way. This time was invested seeking the Lord and getting to know His intimate voice.

In 1994 God called together a group of men who were each waiting on His calling and formed Heartland. Don joyfully dusted off his strings which he had put down for four years and new music began to flow once again. God used Heartland to reach hungry hearts of all ages. Doors were opened in an amazing variety of venues often sharing the stage with other ministries such as BeBe Winans, Cindy Cruse and many others.

After Heartland, Don spent the next years playing guitar and singing at Covenant Church in Carrollton and River of Glory Church in Plano, Texas. He has contributed his talents to multiple CD recording projects and ministry conferences. His heart is to share the Joy he has come to know in Jesus, which is the same passion that led him to Racing Gravity, an all original music ministry.

Influences

I love the presence of the Lord, and flowing in whatever form of music is appropriate for the event/service. We can keep it smooth and worshipful, groove some R&B or rock it out if the need arises. I have an energetic joy while playing that is both inspiring and infectious. I just love music and the people of God...
