I have lived in Washington State since 2022 and prior to that-I resided around the world since birth from NY to Vermont to Rhode Island to London to Dominican Republic to Micronesia to Hawaii to Florida to California and now-here. You can hear some of my studio harmonica recordings released in 2022 online and on Limited Edition Vinyl from Third Man Pressing with the guitar player and keyboard player of Bob Marley and the Wailers, drummer and guitar player for Shaggy and Sting, and the bass player and drummer for Grammy nominated Roots Radics here:

I am one of the first musicians on Earth to be recorded in 3-Dimensional Audio in 2016 at Garberville Theatre by Sound Pressure Labs CEO Mykey Way which led to a lead harmonica performance at Northern Nights Music Festival in 2016 and live Harmonica performances in 2023-2024 at Sony Pictures Studios and The Village Studios (https://www.villagestudios.com/recording-artists) in Hollywood. In 2023-2024 in Washington State I have performed live harmonica at Club Crow, Pybus Public Market, Leavenworth Ski Hill, Benson Vineyards, Leavenworth Cider House, Goose Ridge Winery, McGlinn’s, Union Hill Cider House and more. I also have licensed some of my Harmonica recordings with composer and producer Earl Chinna Smith (named one of the greatest guitar players ever by Rolling Stone) for a future film project from an Oscar nominated producer for a 2025 production and will return to California soon for future music opportunities.

I have directed multiple film documentaries featuring Grammy winning artists from around the world and the creators of Rock Steady music in Jamaica: The Soul Vendors as well as directed films with Indigenous Leaders from Hawai’i, Jamaica, and Ghana Africa, among others such as John Butler from Australia and Wayne Cobham, trumpet player for the Temptations. I have also written lead magazine articles for The Surfer’s Journal, The Surfer’s Path, Cannabis Culture, Journal of Environmental Management, Journal of Ecohealth, Innov8, and the cover story for the American Advertising Award Winning Magazine Issue in 2015 for Best Collateral Material in the USA.

I excel at harmonica, write excellent original lyrics and love to play live music and coordinate immersive media projects with Sound Pressure Labs in TRUESPL SPHERICAL SURROUND SOUND.
