Lucent Eyes Video
My video for Lucent Eyes is now available on my YouTube channel. Enjoy!
New video out tomorrow
Tomorrow, I will be releasing a video for ‘Lucent Eyes’ from my album, A CONFUSION SEQUENCE out now on 7d Media. I am especially proud of this song for its use of talk box Warr guitar. The video was shot in the darkest dingiest spot ever by longtime collaborator, Chuck Deters. Tomorrow also begins a radio blitz for the album!

Seven Songs in the Forest
As a thank you to everyone that came out and watched my solo acoustic shows, I created this short “concert” in the forest. I played seven songs live with the birds chirping and the mosquitoes bitting in the woods of northern Michigan. Thank you to Awrey Films for recording and putting the video together. Watch it now on my YouTube page: https://youtu.be/0pwGKZ0-9aU
Autopoietican Review
“This album is a vestige of the perpetual aesthetic clarity that works in the mind of this master of the Warr Guitar and, of course, is totally recommended for any good art-rock record collection.” Read the full review (in Spanish) at Autopoietican - Apuntes de Musica Progresiva Contemporanea
