Just a note... I'm absolutely thrilled to have won the international 2006 USA Songwriting Competition, with my song "Callin' All Angels"! I could not have achieved this without the continued support of my friends and family. I am loved and blessed. Naturally, I am deeply inspired to complete my next solo record.

For the past year, I have been on the road touring with Grammy Winner American Roots artist Maria Muldaur. Also, I am featured on Maria's most recent album "Heart of Mine ~ Love Songs of Bob Dylan". This album has been #1 on the USA Billboard Blues Chart for over four weeks.

Currently, I'm recording with my band Trance Zen Dance with plans to release our fourth album sometime in 2007. For over five years, I have been singing and performing with Trance Zen Dance; I have been having the time of my life! TZD currently resides in Santa Cruz, California. trancezendance.org

Lastly, my experience performing in Folsom, California with Michael Franti & Spearhead, was a life changing experience. This event took place on Thanksgiving 2005, in the California State Prison-Sacramento “New Folsom Prison”. This was a historical, national radio broadcast!  Having been my third musical visit within those prison walls, I have witnessed self transformation and I have witnessed self transformation from the men in blue.  I believe with all my heart, “music is medicine, and one of the clearest paths to love”.  There are many paths to the same summit and eventually we all will meet.

Special thanks to Cheri Snook, KVMR & the Men in Blue.
