Hello Listener. My compositions are about struggle and truth. Some of my works are controversial but only because they reveal the truth. The truth about what is happening in the world, in our lives, and in our minds. Life is short on this planet so let your words have truth and meaning. Bring light into the darkness. There-fore I write. My musical influences come from the 1700s through the 1990s. Starting with Classical, into Blues, Rock, Hip Hop, Pop, and some Metal. Examples: Black Sabbath, The Smashing Pumpkins, Stone Temple Pilots, Alice in Chains, The Police, America, Green Day, Linkin Park, U2, Johnny Cash, David Bowie, Fugees, Boston, The Doors, Linda Ronstadt, Pink Floyd, Oasis, DMX, Beastie Boys, Tears for Fears, Electric Light Orchestra, Styx. I'm also a surfer, gamer, political advocate, fisherman, entrepreneur, husband/father, infantryman, writer, and aerospace logistician for the Navy.
