"Philosophical inquiries in the form of spacey, complex pop from this Austin, Texas multi-instrumentalist" - Dave Heaton, Erasing Clouds
"Sketches of everyday life depicted by minimal folk-pop arrangements that are sometimes slightly countrified, sometimes subtly psych-tinged. Heartfelt and moving, this is pure poetry." - Alessandro Crestani, Best Kept Secret
"This humble release makes the most of its medium, offering a stunning round of slack-jawed numbers that swirl grooves with carefully planned eccentricities into a cohesive production." - Andrew Magilow, Splendid EZine
"A superb collection of songs from the amazing Austin, Texas songster"
- Kim Harten, Bliss Aquamarine

Bio
I'm an explorer and a craftsman of the many different musical methodologies of writing, recording and producing music.
I grew up in a very small, rural and poor town in Alabama where I developed an immense love for rhythm, soul, honesty and feeling in music.
I've been writing and recording for 18 years and during this time I've had the pleasure of working and playing with many great artists from Jennyanykind, Sunset, Monahans, Willie Nelson, Luna, Spoon, The Frydaddys, The Cunning Runts, The Summer Wardrobe, King Tears and Athens V Sparta.
Some of my influences are Beck, Neil Young, Ray Davies, The Beatles, Badfinger, Star Fucker, Simply Saucer, Can, Pere Ubu, and many, many more.
I love listening to and discovering new and old music.
I sometimes wear my heart on my sleeve.
