MUSICAL ARRANGEMENTS (More at YouTube)

I’ve written for large jazz ensemble, brass quintet, and brass band, primarily. You can hear these works and watch along with the scores at my YouTube channel.

PLAY ALONG DUETS (More at YouTube)

I intermittently practice and record duets for low brass instruments as an educational resource and teaching tool for myself whenever I’ve run out of interesting things to work on. Whenever I finish a project, I’ll post to my YouTube channel for posterity and to keep me humble.

OTHER ENDEAVORS

Boomtown Brass Band: A founding member of Boomtown Brass Band, Houston's premier traditional jazz band specializing in New Orleans-style jazz of the 1920s and 1930s.

Idol Gossip was a cool jazz ensemble based on the Gerry Mulligan piano-less quartets of the 1950s and 60s, performing transcriptions and our own arrangements within the classic "cool"-era style. It was a fun project while it lasted, but now exists only on YouTube—we have considered reviving the project in the future.

Clouseaux: A founding member (2001-04) of Houston's finest tiki and exotica musical outfit. We built music for retro enjoyment, ultra-lounging, and mostly to showcase fire-breathing at our live performances.

The Suspects: Trombonist for the original Houston ska band (member from 1998-2009); featured on the album Lost Along the Way.
