Hey everyone! I’m super excited to share my new vlog with you. It’s something I’ve been into for quite some time and finally started playing with it yesterday. I was planning on just practicing all week and then debuting this weekend with our trip to Big Bear to play at the Arts Festival, but I was so inspired and stoked at how this first edit came out that I decided to launch a little early. Let me know what you Read More …
I’ve never been a morning person. In fact, I’ve always been an extreme night owl and had little-to-no morning routine. I feel that the height of my creativity happens after 9pm and I am most excited late at night. While this works really well for my musician life and could potentially be doable in my blogger life, it doesn’t necessarily work well for having a wife, a dog, friends, family, and a real life. While I’ve never been good at sleeping Read More …
And my story of an insane music week continues… The other half of that week consisted of the re-debut of the Rockett Trio. We rehearsed a couple times that week during the day, so I was having some jam-packed (pun semi-intended) musical days going from Rockett Trio in the afternoon to The Boy Who Danced on Air at night. The week culminated in the re-debut of the band at Sycamore Den Thursday night with King Taylor Project and a second Read More …
Let me tell you about my amazing week… Not last week, but the week before, I had one of the most incredibly musically fulfilling weeks I’ve had in a long time. I had two different music projects to work on that week: one, the new musical I’m playing at Diversionary Theatre called The Boy Who Danced on Air, and the other, the re-debut of the Rockett Trio. In the first half of the week, we had a couple rehearsals for Read More …
Greetings beautiful people! I’m excited to get back to blogging now that I’ve officially launched Guitar Chord Kick-Start and plan to really dive head-first into it. As I mentioned in another post, I broke many promises to you and to myself in order to finish GCKS. Specifically, I promised you all back in February that I would be posting every day until I launched. My plan was to keep you updated on my progress and everything I was working on, Read More …

For freaking real this time! I’m launching tomorrow. Seriously! After missed deadlines, false starts, broken promises (to you and to myself), and a whole lot of coffee and Diet Red Bull, I am finally ready to pull the trigger and launch tomorrow. Expect a full write-up of my thoughts, feelings, and — undoubtedly — tangents tomorrow, but for now, just get excited for tomorrow at 10am Pacific. I repeat, I am launching tomorrow at 10am Pacific Time! Peek back here Read More …
I took a little weekend break from writing, but here’s a quick catch-up since my last note. Saturday was mainly a non-work day. My nephew’s birthday party was in the morning, so Meag and I went up to Orange County for that, met her mom for lunch, then sat in gnarly traffic trying to get home to San Diego. At night, we had a nice hang with one of our best friends (and now neighbor) Danielle. Boring for you reading Read More …
Greetings good people, Another quick update on this lovely, windy Monday Today was a hugely productive day. I spent the morning finishing up the edits from my personal proofreading for the guitar book, and then sent it off to my great friend, David Ryan Norgren, for a round of proofing from him. After that, I’ll have my fiancé go over it for the non-muso’s perspective, and then Dave and I will go over it once more. I’m feeling pretty good Read More …
Friends, I apologize for the radio silence over the past several weeks. I’ve been focusing on my projects, had a show going, and have been doing more Uber in addition to starting to work for Postmates, so I put the blog on the backburner. Just a quick update for today I went with my gut and decided to go with a guitar product as my first product. I’ve spent the last weeks building the product — outlining, writing, designing, and Read More …
