My musical history varies from blues to heavy metal to funk and jazz. Most of the last several years have been focused on funk, rap, r&b, jazz/funk, and hip-hop.

I've been fortunate enough to work with an exceptional group of musicians over the years, all of whom have helped shape the musician that I've become so far.

Currently I am the leader of a band called The Brothers Thick in Los Angeles - "Thick" being a state of mind, as well as a sound. Hopefully that paints a picture of the band. The Brothers Thick is a band that will perform originals, covers, and also back any artist that wants to have an amazing live show or showcase.

MP3.com radically changed their policy or something and trashed a huge number of tunes on their - well, my site. It's very sparse at the moment. Check out The Brothers Thick webpage for a little more current playing stuff.
