🎉 TODAY’S THE DAY! The debut single of my debut album is out in the world today, “One More Dime” (link in bio). Go give it a listen or two, or twelve and let’s trick the algorithm to thinkin’ I’m more special than I am 😉. Every save, share, playlist placement, and download goes a long way into helping this independent music get legs so I very much appreciate your ears and attention. 🙏
One More Dime is a song about persistent dissatisfaction with the status quo. Where there’s change, we crave stability. Where there’s routine, we crave variety. I like to think I’m not alone in this sentiment, but let me know if I’m just crazy 😅. The song was written a couple years ago in my folks’s barn in PA, road tested with the boys in @woodbelly as an eclectic jam, until finally landing on the hard-driving bluegrass number that sits in front of us today.
My immense gratitude to the cast of folks that brought this to fruition. We got an all-star cast of acoustic Colorado musicians with Sam Patterson on guitar and harmonies, Corey Clark on banjo and harmonies, Scott Kwiatek on bass, Dan Andre on Fiddle with myself trying to keep up on mandolin. We threw it down at Honey Thief Studios in Loveland Colorado with Dan Perez manning tracking/mixing and Andy Whilden of Treeline Sound on the master.
BIG thanks to the kickstarter supporters for believing in this project and I hope you enjoy!

Huge thank you to everyone who contributed, especially @rossthompson7478 and @bidickinson who dreamed this whole thing up from scratch and trusted the rest of us to bring it to life. Major thanks to @krfcfm for backing the project from the start and helping turn it into a full-scale concert (that sold out in an hour after presale!)

“Mr. Wright” is a tribute to a childhood friend who tragically passed away from an overdose in our early twenties. The song was written near the anniversary of his untimely death, capturing the weight of loss and the enduring bond of friendship. #loss #newmusic #bestfriends
2024 was a solid year. After a couple years finding my path, I managed to get my act together!
I bought a new house to call home, got a puppy named Cali, and turned music/audio into a career. 🎶
2025’s gonna kick ass!
We made this song for the holidays!
A fresh take on Auld Lang Syne 🎶. It was so much fun collaborating on this pop/cinematic version—we hope it brings some warmth to your holiday season! 🌟

Tay came in and dropped these 🔥 vocals just 2 days before the deadline for the @themusicdistrict Sync Songwriting Challenge. I handled the production, and Andy gave it that final polish with the master. Couldn’t be happier with how it turned out! 🙌
