Raised in the Pacific Northwest he says : "I sing and write about things I believe in, and just about everything there is to know about me is in my songs. My influences run from Carmen Caballero (the Cuban pianist) to Glenn Miller and as far out as Frank Zappa or the Crash Test Dummies. If it's good, I like it."

Playing with Keith Yocum in the Hawk -Yocum Band, he wants to play everywhere, especially Europe, Canada, New Zealand and Australia. "I've never been to those places, but I like the folks I've met from those countries."

We have a couple of interesting projects in the work so stay tuned to hawk-yocum.com for more info.

Still working on new songs, got a bunch waiting to get recorded. Most of these songs haven't been finalized, we sent them up as demos to get a reaction since we haven't lived in the US for a while. I appreciate the criticisms and encouragement. Recently I designed and built a couple of recording studios, most recently in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. I've got several recording projects going, and I'm currently looking for investors to back them.
