I''m a man that has been singing all my life, and on stage since the age of four. I've worked in studios and nightclubs throughout the Western USA as a vocalist and a singing drummer, with a few awesome moments on the big stage during my career... I believe there is still much more music to share! Born and raised in Seattle; Blues, R&B, and Soul have always been the music in my heart. It's been said that on stage my movements as a vocalist are a cross between Otis Redding, Joe Cocker, and The King...I can live with that! During my student years, my summers were spent in Hollywood studying music. My Grandfather and mentor Glen Johnston, was known as the Mouthpiece Man in Hollywood. A master in the world of reed instruments, he had been under contract with Disney, Paramount, and Warner Brothers (Carl Stalling). Great horn players from all over the country counted on Glen to create a magical mouthpiece for their reed instruments. Players from the Ray Charles Orchestra, Buddy Rich Big Band, Count Basie Orchestra, and every jazz/blues club in Los Angeles, knew the craftsmanship of my Grandfather. I met players like: Ian Underwood, Frank Zappa, Azar Lawrence, and my teacher and friend John Williams (Baritone sax w/Count Basie). I've had the honor of being on stage and/or working in the studio with the following artists: Eric Burdon (side by side with Jimmy Witherspoon & Robben Ford), Goldy McJohn (Steppenwolf), Harvey Mandel, Doug Heath (Paul Revere & The Raiders), Ron Gardner (The Wailers), Jerry Roslie (The Sonics), Jeff Pevar (CSN/CPR)...and so many more!
