FREE DOWNLOAD – “Rocketship” - May 21st, 2013

It’s that time again…the months keep flying by.  I’m excited to release “Rocketship” to the world.  I feel the creative momentum building and although I always think the newest songs are great, this one is my favorite thus far.

I have had a very fortunate life with a wonderful family and great friends.  There is, however, a period of my life that was exceptionally difficult.
 
While attending Cary High School in North Carolina, I, along with all of the other students, had to cope with 6 fellow students and friends taking their own lives…3 in the same month.

FREE DOWNLOAD – “So You Know (feat. Drew Seeley)” - April 24th, 2013

It was an awesome experience to collaborate with Drew.  He is a pro in every sense of the word and raised the level of this track a ton.
I wrote this “love song” for my fiance Amber Slaven and thought Drew would relate because of his upcoming marriage to Amy Paffrath.
Needless to say, I think it worked out perfectly.  The song is from my latest album “The Left Coast” available on iTunes:  The Left Coast on iTunes
I appreciate the support.  Please spread the word!
