Death of a Salesman

Pop rock power ballad with crossover potential

This Is Gonna Hurt

Here is a mid tempo pop ballad called "Fairy Tale", by my band Star 69. This is off our album called The Black List.

star 69 - fairy tale

One of my favorite bands to ever record at Thermal-Star 69! This is my favorite song from our record called The Black List. I remember watching The Miracle Worker as a 5th grader, so this song has a lot of childhood emotion wrapped in ROCK.

This is a track called "Surrender" I co-wrote and produced for Courtney Jansen. This is from her brand new EP called Closer To Eden. All instruments except drums are performed by me. Drums are Bobby Pyrilis, and vocals of course are Courtney! Love this track- check the full EP out on Itunes!
