Saturday, August 8, 2015 at 02:28AM Just got out of rehearsal with The Iris Project. We are rehearsing for JoeStock, a local music festival in St. Joseph, MO. We are doing a couple of my original tunes and we recorded The Chocolate Cake Is Bleeding. So take a listen and enjoy!
Sunday, August 2, 2015 at 01:53AM I have been very active on my social media accounts in order to announce that my brass and percussion music that is published by Amalgam Publishing is now available from JW Pepper, Lone Star Percussion, and Explorers Percussion. This has all happened within a very short span of time so forgive me for not posting on here sooner. Also, I uploaded a new track to my soundcloud. It's a (work in progress) indoor drumline feature that I am writing for a high school. Check it out and give me your thoughts.
Tuesday, June 16, 2015 at 04:20AM Hey guys,
So I moved back to MO and will be pursuing lots of new musical ventures in the coming months. I have already finished a couple of projects, which include writing a choral arrangement of one of my art songs. I also plan on writing another solo for drumset as a companion piece to the other two I have already written and publish them as a set before the year is out. Lastly, I should have my band commission ready by September, just in time for the SJCB season.

Saturday, January 10, 2015 at 07:15PM The Milwaukee Youth Symphony Orchestra Percussion Ensemble, directed by Linda Siegel, will perform Four African Dances as a part of their February 28th program Classic Cadences. Needless to say I am looking forward to hearing such fine young musicians perform my music.
