I've spent most of my life writing, recording, releasing, and performing original music in several underground punk, indie, and alt-rock bands. When I wasn't doing any of that, I was running sound, recording and mixing other bands, booking for music venues, and cranking out flyers and merch for my friends.

I made the mistake of assuming the responsibility of 'band dad' in most of the bands I was in. The silver lining is that I had to wear a lot of different hats. I kind of did it all, but now I know how to take on (and delegate) every responsibility that could possibly exist within a band framework.

I work with bands on a daily basis. Some are bigger touring bands, some are weekend warrior cover bands, and some are gearing up to play their first show. The experience of meeting the unique needs of each type of band, day in and day out, keeps me on my toes, and keeps me full of relevant, up-to-date knowledge I can share with you.
