Back from the abyss! It has been years since I created anything new. Ive been playing a lot of shows and did a few baby band tours for next to no money. Once again I find myself tired of playing other peoples music. This one was recorded on a zoomR24 with only one studio monitor so I probably screwed up the mix. (Visiting my parents so I went mobile...TMI) Anyways, I hope it sounds better through your computer speakers. And I hope y'all like it! I love you all:)

Sorry about the un-tune violin playing. Bass guitar fingers on a little finger board.

Cajun funk

Here is another song idea with more emphasis on harmonizing riffs rather than soloing over a riff.

OhYeah

Just another simple groove tune. No drums. If you want drums, you add them, lol! I was getting sick of having this half finished song and no time to finish it for the last 2 months because of my day job. The third transition/violin modulation could have been more thought out and precise, but man I felt like I couldn't move on with new ideas until this one was complete. Hope you enjoy and thanks for giving a listen!

Bassist/multi instrumental faker here! 
I’m just a (very) small business owner nobody who grew up in a musical family. My mom, a piano teacher and church organist, payed for private violin lessons every week until I turned 18. I took up guitar and bass guitar when I was 16 as an escape from the strict regiment of classical music. 
I grew up with older brother’s who were your typical middle class 80’s rockers. 
I’m the surprise baby of a music professor, woodwind clarinetist, author of the book, ‘New Directions for Clarinet’ and a piano teacher,  church organist. 
I grew up a decade later than my wild, crazy, beer drinking brothers. 
Although I was obviously influenced by my surroundings, I prefer music that makes you shake your ASS, not your neck! 
I have played many bars, clubs and festivals, theaters and two arenas. (That was wild!) with various groups ranging from Hip Hop, Puerto Rican and Afro Cuban jazz to country, blues, funk,  Italian folk music, fusion, classic rock covers, hippie jam band, emo, alternative and  metal. What styles are left?  I’ve already played with an accordion I’m not getting mixed up with no banjos and bluegrass. 
 My Heart is in the groove and I’m usually available as a hired gun. I’m a quick study and a normal guy driven by love and compassion for all on this journey called life. 
I’m not a guitarist. I suck at guitar but I hide it through relentless dub ins on my recordings. 
Bass and violin parts take me 10 minutes tops compared to a good hour of guitar faking. 
Drums and other loops are part of the presonus studio one, acoustic drum loops 2  and big fish.  I use Phil Jones amps either direct or with a Shure 57 or both.  
My ears are shot so I apologize for the seriously rough mixes.  Hopefully my skills will improve in that department. 

I praise God everyday for the gifts he gave me, the loved ones who surrounded me, and my ability to share my music with you. 
Thank you! Thanks SoundCloud. And thanks to everyone for taking the time to check my music out.
