In every beating heart is a soul and a voice screaming to get out.

Though each of us have a different passion we all have one goal and that is to become someone, inspire someone, or leave our mark. If you have found this page you have found mine. Once a kid without direction or passion for life to what I am now, a big kid with a passion for life and all that it has to offer.

My album Destination Red has been doing ok, better than I thought it would anyway. It has sold more than one copy so it was a success in every way! For those who have gotten it, thank you and I hope it took you on a musical journey into my soul. If not get it and listen because you'll hear things that no others have heard from me. You'll hear love, rage, sorrow, anger, and peace. From the opening track Fly that takes you within my soul and the sorrow it holds to Infinity that makes you feel like banging your head and having fun to No Rules that give you a glimpse into what is to come from me, to Scream which just rocks!

Yeah, no stage lights, no crowds, but if you really listen you can hear my heart beating.........and my soul screaming...... and maybe, just maybe, you will hear yours as well.

til next time.......

Hi 2021 we've been waiting for you.

As we close this incredible, emotional, frustrating year in American history we all should be grateful for being able to see 2021 and beyond because there are some of our family and friends that didn't get that luxury this time around. I hope you are safe and thank you for following me. I wish your family and you a safe and calm holiday season and keep yourself above water in every way! Both financially and emotionally!  Know that I am always reading and posting stuff on all of my social pages and am working on the next list of music for whenever I decide to release my next album! 

So I'd like to thank all the companies and people that find time to support me.

Ibanez

To my family, my friends, without you I would have no purpose in life. I continue to grow and evolve because of you all.  

To those who have stopped by this site and purchased my album Destination Red I say THANK YOU!!!!! I didn't know what it would be when I started and even though it isn't perfectly recorded, or maybe not what others expected, it became exactly what I wanted. I was able to let the world in on what my mind wanted to get out for years and was just unable to find the time or money to do it. I have met some incredible people from it and continue to meet incredible people from it!!! 

What's next?  Well a little more education on music production is in the works and that is something I have always enjoyed but now I have taken it more seriously in every way. New professional gear, more knowledge, and more experimentation moving forward. Maybe even a new studio  in the near future....hmmmm.....we'll see! I'm always working on new riffs. Some old and some brand new but all me, where I am at right now. What people have known about me musically is only part of what's to come and with that I will leave you with this....

Happy Holidays! Happy 2021! Here's to a safe and whole life, to all of you! The best is yet to come for all of us!!!

Let peace be with you in every path you take! Let's TURN IT UP!

So hearing the news about anyone passing is devastating depending on who they are to you. I, like the entire planet heard the news of EVH's passing less than 24 hours from the date of this post and isn't it crazy to think to how impactful one human being can be? One you actually know and one that you don't? We call them idols. We call them family. We call them special in our own way. While Eddie was not my #1 main guitar influence, the people he inspired to pick up the guitar and become great themselves is who inspired me to pick it up. From Jake E Lee, John Petrucci, Richie Kotzen and the list goes on and on but if it wasn't for Eddie's dream, self made guitar, and drive to just have fun....which one would have picked up a guitar and became who they are today? Who did that for you? Was it your mom, dad, teacher, spouse, girlfriend, boyfriend, friend, stranger? 

When we each dream it becomes our heart, our soul, and a part of us in ways that others can't see.

Eddie's dream was lived through just about anyone young and old who plays an instrument. When they look back in time they will see Eddie's contribution to what rock music was, is, and will always be. No denying that. 

In the public eye a picture was painted about every second of Eddie's life and maybe his ego may have gotten in the way throughout his career in the worst of times and even in the best of times, but in the end all those who he supposedly walked on, stepped over, and may have pushed away are the same people by his side in the end and the ones who will never say anything bad about him because they respect who he is inside and behind the scenes from what we all know of him. He deserves respect in the music world from all and he deserves all that he searched for in his life when he built his iconic instrument and band. From music to love he found it all. The world found it all. I found it all from his legacy and who he inspired to be great, his son, his family, his fans, and hopefully you found it all in your life right now.....if not.....go find it right now!

Hug the people around you that inspired you to be who you are. Find who and what fate has allowed you to have. Tell someone you love them because...

Tomorrow is never promised so live for right now!

R.I.P Mr Eddie Van Halen.....jump to the stars like only you know how!
