I'm a singer/songwriter from Northern California. My album, "Something In The Air," is a collection of songs about growing up fast, driving fast cars, working fast food, pondering the fate of humankind ("Me and Jesus Riding the Greyhound"), and almost paying the ultimate price ("Blink").

I work at songwriting with temperament and a fair amount of tempestuousness. I get inspired to put together words, music and melodies out of an appreciation for storytellers John Hiatt and Rodney Crowell and songwriters like Neil Finn, Chuck Prophet and Ron Sexsmith. I grew up in Northern California.  My father would bring home garbage bags full of old 45 records that I would rummage through all afternoon.  “Someone must have tossed them out of their collection.” I’d think..but, there they were in front of me and I needed them! There were some caked with garbage and grime and others pristine without a single scratch. I would get excited to drop the needle and hear what’s next. What a gift!
Years later, I’d take a pilgrimage to Texas with two suitcases and $500 in the bank.  I used the time to cut my teeth among the open-mics and songwriters’ night’s. Those type of shows were in abundance at the time I was around town, I really got into listening to the other writers play and talk about music. “Live Music Capital of the World”, Austin’s music scene yielded a bounty of musical experiences that I can still draw on today.

I live in Sonoma. Ca.  I stay busy as a singer-songwriter. I am grateful. 

My new release “A.M. Sessions” is out now and available at live shows and on all platforms.   - S.R.
