Welcome,

 

Over the years I've had the pleasure of playing with many talented musicians.  The creative process and musical conversations are some of the reasons I enjoy playing bass so much.  

 

The samples on my site are from three of my primary groups: Agents of Venus, Dr Doolittle, and Aries Rising. Agents of Venus members include: Allen Tobin, Phil Ristaino, Michael Parillo, and myself. Allen and Phil are the writing force behind the project.  Aries Rising members are: Scot Schwestka, Zach Von Stein, and myself.  In Aries Rising, I shared the writing duties with Scot, and the result was a fusionesque project.  Dr. Doolittle featured Allen Tobin, Michael Parillo, John Reitan, and myself.  These musicians were the greatest influences on me to this day and our humble beginnings still remain some of my fondest musical memories.  The remaining music samples come from a few of my solo compositions.  Among those a couple are from my solo album entitled BASS which features Michael Parillo on drums.

 

I'm very grateful for the musical path I've traveled, and full of excitement for the rest of the journey that lies ahead.  I hope you enjoy the music and thank you for stopping by.
