To all my really special fans and friends on my mailing list, I can't thank you enough! Woke up this morning to 3 of my songs in the Top 100 in the (expired link).! "Procession" debuted at #11, "Mothers and Fathers" is at #30 and "Jaded Raven" is at #66, all for the entire (expired link). In fact, "Procession" is #22 in the World and #1 in New York. Also, "Jaded Raven" made it to as high as #3 in the (expired link). last week. None of this would have been possible without your support. Who said instrumentals with big, loud and screaming guitars are dead? Be sure to check out my album "Colors That Move", which contains all of these songs on iTunes at

Your kind words and continued support of my music means everything to me. I hope you all have a safe and joyous holiday season.

Rock on!

Just looked at the charts this morning and found out that I have THREE SONGS IN THE TOP 100 IN THE (expired link).! Wow! I can't thank all the listeners and especially my friends in my network for making this happen. I'm blow away. Just goes to show people will actually listen to instrumentals with big guitars! "Jaded Raven" actually made it to #3 in the US last week. It fell a little this week, but "Procession" debuted this week at #11 in the (expired link)., "Mothers and Fathers" at #30 in the (expired link)., and "Jaded Raven" at #66 in the (expired link). In fact, "Procession" is #22 in the Word, and #1 in New York.

These songs are all from my album "Colors That Move", which was a true labor of love to make. I've had decades of experience playing rock, metal, blues, country, you name it. My goal with this album was to create a "stew" of all these styles and meld them into a sonic painting. Going back to the days when people listened to albums, my vision was to take the listener on a journey of many moods and emotions, using the guitar as the voice where each song, when listened to sequentially, told a story to the listener. "Mothers and Fathers" is actually the last song on the album, intentionally, it was my final word, final statement for the album (it's actually a musical message to my children). The fact that people are now listening to and enjoying this music gives me such immense joy.

The entire "Colors That Move" album is available everywhere and on all the streaming services. You can also buy it on iTunes by cutting and pasting this link below (or clicking on the album cover above.

I've already begun work on writing my next album. This one will actually have some vocals.

One more BIG shout out to everyone who joined my network. Your support and kind words have been treasured by me. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy Christmas, Happy New Year!
