This was quite an undertaking. I was hired on to a Lifetime movie about domestic violence. I knew it would be emotionally heavy going in. But the network also wanted to pivot from their traditional piano and tines scores to something more experimental and edgy. We referenced Atticus Ross/Trent Reznor, Gorecki, Arvo Pärt, and deep ambient experimental drones.

The result airs August 1st, 2020 in the US at 8pm on Lifetime Networks.

I hope you dig it.

For as little as a dollar a month you can support the development of new tracks and projects.

The classic artists that we listen to, came up in a world where artist development was essential to their development of mastery and crafting the songs that have informed our generations.

With the massive shift of the record…

So excited to share with you the new video for the single "(Don't Get Caught) By The Dazzling Charades."

The song was an answer to a 7-Day challenge, but I actually wrote, recorded, mixed and completed the entire thing - every single second, in 7 days, live on Periscope. My old buddy Josh Joudrie helped out with that ;)

And then we took like another month to fine tune it for commercial release :)

Then we successfully funded it on IndieGogo in 18 hours - getting it mastered by Andy Vandette (Sevendust…

So remember that time I promised to make a song in 7 days if I got 100 likes? 

It happened, and we did. It was all documented on Periscope and that will be available soon in digest form on YouTube due to a successful ensuing IndieGogo crowdfunding campaign. 

Last night I received the final masters from M.r Andy VanDette who again, went above and beyond to get it just right. We got Mr. Lifeson's notes and blessing. And I am deep into production on the music video. One of my faves I have ever made for a…

The other day my friend and fellow guitarist Pete Devlin (of band Blue Dog Pict) posted a link to a video from a web series I created with my co-producer Josh Joudrie called Rock Soup.

Pete said he was still over the moon about our show in Toronto with Mr. Alex Lifeson and all the other incredible musicians who joined us onstage including drummer Ryan Brown, bassist D'Arcy Maguire, harmonica player Marty Stelnick and guitarist Steve Costello. See Pete and I go way back to when we were just 14 year old kids…Read more
