  • Most memorable Next-Level Performance

    One day I had a shoot with Allen Stone. We had 4 songs to track, only time for 2 passes each. The room was super live, so I had to play really quiet. One of these was 'Unaware', and has 11 million views on YouTube, has been all over TV, and is still his most famous video.

  • What Drives Your Creativity?

    I love melodies. There's nothing better than the feeling you get from a great hook, and nothing more inspiring as a player.
