ABOUT
As both pianist and keyboardist, I've been fortunate to work with a stylistically wide array of artists and talent that have included the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra and rock 'n' roll's iconic originator Little Richard.
Recently, I've worked in both live and studio environments with artists from abroad such as the Canadian rock act Pride Tiger (Juno Nominee - "Rock Album of the Year" 2008),the Finish band The 69 Eyes and British singer-songwriter Nick Howard. Other Los Angeles CA and national acts I've worked with have included Johnnie Burton, DJ Drea, The Flys, Courtenay Green, Karuna, Bonnie McKee and The Removal Act.
Prior to that I was the musical director and and keyboardist for singer-songwriter and A&M Records recording artist E.G. Daily (Tearing Down The Walls)as well as the recording and touring keyboardist for Los Angeles CA's now cult-status opera rock band Mozart for several years.
Peripherally, I've had original songs placed in the New York City production of "Wickets" (producers Clove Galilee and Jenny Rogers) at the OBIE Award winning HERE Arts Center.
Producers I've worked with include Neal Avron, Roy Thomas Baker / RTB Audio Visual Productions, Greg DeBelles, Michael Vail Blum, Brad Gilderman, King Charles Glenn, Brandon Jarrett / MoHo Productions, Chris Johnson, Matt Hyde, Eddie DeLena, Harvey Mason Jr., Mike Masters, Micah Plissner, Shepard Stern / Sternworld Productions and Narada Michael Walden.
I've also recorded and performed with artists affiliated with the following labels: A&M Records, Buena Vista / Disney Records, Cleopatra Records, EMI Records (US & Canada), Interscope / Trauma Records, IRS Records / Bachoven Musicwerks, Teichiku Records, Toshiba / EMI Records (UK), Warner Bros. Records and Zenext Records.
Of Los Angeles CA's talented roster of musicians I've had the privilege of working alongside Adrian Andres, Steve Fekete (Avril Lavigne), Jeff Kluesner, Rafael Moriera (Pink), Marcus Watkins, Al T. Berry (Kelly Clarkson), Marc Doten, Jeff McElroy (Kitaro), Jenn Oberle (Klymaxx), Mario Pagliarulo (Serj Tankian), Miiko Watenabe (Gwen Stefani), Ralf Balzer (Joey Santiago), Joe Berardi (Stan Ridgeway), Makoto Izumitani (Rickie Lee Jones), Jake Voulgarides and many others.
Additionally I read and write music, sing and arrange backup vocals and have perfect pitch.
