Unabashed trombone, vocals, ballads, standards I love...heart on the sleeve type stuff.  All imperfectly homemade and live recorded in two short sessions same day in August 2016, just to play music with some of my favorite people...for fun, sharing with friends, to have some more recent stuff on SoundCloud.

Sail Away

Check this out!  I'm proud to have been asked to play this ballad-esque trombone solo/feature for the newly released big band record by Teryn Re (Carter/McPherson)!  Just released this this month (Feb 2014), Teryn is a terrific young writer, singer, recent graduate of Azusa Pacific Univ. who arranged ALL the music for her entire record, including this one, and saw this project through fully independently.  Other than Harry Connick Jr. I don't know another singer who can write all their own arrangements...let alone lead a full indie project to fruition like this!  This kind of a project is a massive labor of love to pull off, fully independently... So I am wowed by her efforts, and flattered/happy to have gotten to take a part here in this way.  So please throw a "like" or two around here (if you do), or heck...dare I say...iTunes it to benefit Teryn!  :)
