My
first ever solo recording, Lines On The Wall
features ten songs written over the last decade or so. A departure from
the heavier more progressive music I've recorded the last few years,
most of these tracks are acoustic guitar based and more pop oriented. I
intended this project more as a display of my songwriting than my
guitar playing, but I couldn't resist the opportunity to take a lead
break every now and then. Created at Cheap Ass Studios in Alameda, CA
between February 2001 and July 2002.

Balance
is the first recording I have made for Magna Carta. Working
with Robert Berry
at Soundtek
Studios was great fun and the performances on this album
reflect the vibe in the control room - sometimes laid back and
sometimes intense! Recorded November and December 2000,
released April 24, 2001.

I
met Dave Halverson and Terry Lee while working at Skyline Studios
in Oakland, CA. All of us had recently moved to town and Dave
and I found we have way too much in common. He and I spent
hours in the studio on this one. Released in the Summer of
2000.

Recorded
live at the 1999 Philadelphia Folk Festival. This is the
biggest show I've played yet - 15,000 people, and it was recorded to 24
track! We took the master tapes home to Oakland and I mixed
the CD at Skyline
Studios in late 1999, released January 2000.

| Pickpocket
Ensemble - International House of Dreams
I
met these guys while working as an audio engineer for a local San
Francisco company. We ran cables throughout the studio and
recorded the band live to multi-track. For me the highlight
was an improvisational piece they later called "Breathing Under Water."

I
met Victor Spiegel of Darvish one day at Skyline Studios
when he was working on one of his soundtrack projects. Later
he showed up with the rest of the group and we recorded three tracks
that afternoon. Darvish has a great sound that will take you
straight to the bazaar.

A
fun bunch of Coast Guard boys. We worked late at
night. One night we tracked all the
vocals. In one night! I still think they came out
great too. The mix was fun but tough because there was no
automation on the mixer. Nothing like manually mixing the
eighth song of the session at 4:00 am. The band broke up when
the Alameda Navy Base closed and they all shipped out to different
parts of the country.

| FEED
This
is a two song CD by my previous band FEED. It was recorded in
the living room of the drummer and singer. We used triggered
drums and recorded bass and guitar direct. The neighbors
still complained about the stomping on the floor during drum
takes. For the mix the three of us huddled around the
Mackie1604 and it was every man for himself! I still enjoy
playing the old FEED material. It is very heavy.
