I started playing music at seven and from then on it was music in soul. My first instrument was a trumpet but the piano quickly called me over to it. I am self taught with the instruments I play and most of the lyrics are on the spot improv.  In 2009, a song I wrote "Oceans", was selected for a indie film being submitted to the CAM film festival in France later this year.

My biggest musical experience was singing for the pope with Up With People on his birthday in the Vatican back in 1998. Since then it has been living room studio jams and the occasional wedding. In the cold month of January 2008, Andy Benton and my self started the band Third Wheel in a friends garage. In one week we were playing 3 nights a week around Anchorage and booked gigs for the rest of 2008 by April. Third Wheel quickly turned into The Third Wheel Project due to the amazing amount of musicians we would find in the crowd and invite to play with us at later shows. This makes for a ever changing show each and every time. Some nights its cello, strings and piano, while other nights its full out jam style with the full gamut of instruments. We have opened for bands and events such as the Binge "Censored 49" Premier, Pilot V, JC Holley, The Dave Velasquez Band, Static Cycle, Arctic Flow and Will Johnson. Special performances are lined up each and every weekend, so check back frequently to hear the new line up of artists. One thing remains constant.... we have a good time and make some killer music.  Under my playlists I have a mix called "And Friends" que up the playlist and take a listen to some of the music made by my friends who have at some point jamed out with Third Wheel Project. Thanks for stopping by and checking our project out.
