Bob Dylan

Lately, I’ve been really fascinated with folk music and folk singers like Bob Dylan and Paul Simon. Guys who just stood in front of a microphone with their acoustic guitars and sang. It’s funny because for the last three years, I’ve been watching people do that nightly and regrettably, I think the experience was often [...]

It’s wonderful how you never get tired of seeing beautiful sunsets. I get to see them almost everyday and they always feel new and exciting. I’m so spoiled to live in such a lovely place where catching one of these views is really a matter of heading home from somewhere equally as beautiful. It’s a [...]

CARYBROTHERS

In the spirit of full disclosure, I just wanted you know know that we are experiencing some speed bumps on the road to making the next album (already). Go figure. It’s bound to happen with any kind of production like this and mine is no exception. Sadly, our friend Jeff is leaving the band for [...]

With everything that happened last year (new band, the SDMA nomination, touring, new songs, new opportunities, etc.) I finally feel like the time is ripe for a full length band album! My last two efforts (download them here) were good records but really were an experiment with songwriting for me. I enjoy the intimacy of [...]

The other night, I found myself running around this enormous parking structure. And as I was running, I had the strange sense that as hard as I was trying to reach my car, I just wasn’t getting there fast enough. For some reason, I thought it would be faster to skip the elevator and take [...]

If you’ve been to a show in the last 6 months or so, you may have noticed that I’ve stayed true to my promise to offer “pay what you want” pricing on my music (click here to read the original post). I’m happy to announce that this has been a great success and I’ve been accomplishing [...]

I’m sitting in bed right now trying to recover from a cold that I undoubtedly caught from being on the road and the many adventures we had. I wish I could tell you all the crazy antics that went on over the last week but I couldn’t do it justice (and there are video/picture/audio recordings [...]

I can’t seem to stop bragging about my new band! It’s like they have completely re-energized me and are taking my music to places I’ve only daydreamed about. Check out this little promo video I made earlier: Instead of rehashing everything that I’ve been putting out to the world about these guys, I thought I [...]

Had the opportunity to go on the San Diego CW “San Diego Living” morning show last Tuesday to promote the San Diego Music Awards! It’s always a strange and thrilling experience to be a guest on some kind of media outlet and share just a little bit more than music. It’s fun to try to [...]

Today is my sister Kristin’s birthday! I can’t even begin to say how proud of her I am. She has already gone through so much and has done it with such grace and poise, that I can only hope to be able to draw the same kind of comparison. Kristin was my main inspiration for [...]

I was blessed to find out that I have been nominated for a 2010 San Diego Music Award in the Best Acoustic category! I can’t tell you how much of a surprise it is for me and how completely floored I am. I am unbelievably honored to be even considered, especially since the category I [...]

I just think it’s important to be well-rounded and have life experiences. I have some friends that go on trips all the [...]

Electric

Now that I’m playing with a band, I can finally do what I’ve always wanted to do: rip some shred-tastic solos. Not really. But kinda. I love the idea of a guitar solo enhancing a songs emotional weight. There’s just so much more I can do on an electric guitar than I can on an [...]
