New TAXI member intro
Posted: Thu Mar 27, 2025 10:03 am
Hey everyone! I recently joined after an invite from a friend in the Mastering.com community @BradleyHagen.
I've been recording and performing as a gun-for-hire guitarist, vocalist, bassist, arranger, composer, music director, etc for over 20 years helping other artists musically. Back in 2018, decided to create my own artist “brand." Here’s my spotify artist playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7mw45 ... smvgt_1ITw Genre-wise I’m kind of all over the place, though my main lane is alternative rock. My latest release is a bass driven, new wave tinged alt rock song called "Drive." Before that was a featured vocals, guitar, and bass for a trip-hop cover of Chris Isaak’s “Wicked Game.” Before that I released an original pop punk song called “Calling You Out.” Before that, an electro progressive alt metal track in an odd time signature called “These Dreary Days.” There was also a jazz fusion cover of Mariah Carey’s “All I Want For Christmas is You” around the holidays last year. Like I said, genres all over the place.
I have also had some modest success in sync after having landed placements with Toyota and Uber. Before joining, I have also had a few collaborations with Bradley for Taxi briefs forwarded to libraries/music sups. In light of these successes, I've been building out my sync catalog with more instrumental numbers and after working with Bradley on tracks and seeing how useful Taxi briefs are to spurring inspiration, I decided to join! If you wanna hear more of my sync work, disco link here https://s.disco.ac/ukmlacjumkxv
I live in inland Los Angeles in a town called Fontana, always down and would love to collaborate with anyone, either remotely or locally. Some random stuff about me: By day I’m a data scientist with a utility company, blessed to work from home 3 days a week which really allows me bandwidth to pursue artist things after work thanks to no commute those days. I became a data scientist back in 2017 after graduating with a PhD in physics which is a random fun fact about me. I am also a worship leader that plays at a few different churches in my area.
Looking forward to working and growing with all of you!
