Production, Mixing and Session Work

Whether it is playing on, producing, mixing, studio time at The Shed, or all of the above, I am always open to hearing about new music. You can get more info on my personal studio, The Shed right here . Feel free to reach out here to discuss details of your project, or ask questions about the process.

Production
With many produced albums, including a slew of Niagara Music Award nominated and winning recordings, I think I've earned a reputation for roots music productions. I built my studio and my production career almost 25 years ago and gradually have been building my collection of recording equipment. For a partial list of Production credits, see the Discography Page.

Remote Sessions
I can also play on your tracks remotely! I've played on many, many recordings and I can add tracks to projects from anywhere in the world, working regularly for many artists and producers. I have a great setup ready to record acoustic or electric instruments. My specialties include bass, vocals, acoustic and electric guitars, keyboards, and more. I also have access to a wide network of seasoned studio players I can reach out to. I can record them in house or send tracks to on various instrumentalist including pedal steel, guitarists, keyboards, horns, cello, etc..
