ABOUT

Former bassist of Boston-based, Detroit infused power pop originals trio Fireking (2006-2018), relocated to the Great White North in 2018 with my lovely Canadian wife and 3 little crazies to put our roots down here in the Forest City. Time is quite limited right now with 3 little ones and full time careers, but I'm playing the long game. Between recording multiple albums, fun studio projects, being part of a vibrant originals live music scene with gigs and mini tours in Boston and Detroit with a sprinkling of Brooklyn, I've been incredibly fortunate to have already achieved all of my childhood rock dreams (and then some!).

Looking to be part of something fun, supportive, musically meaningful and 'community' again by participating and developing lasting relationships in the local music scene - joining/supporting an ongoing band/project anywhere from stripped down acoustic/Americana fare to energetic bands, amps and energy.
