ABOUT
A veteran keyboardist-baritone vocalist-songwriter & visionary producer whose career spans over 35 years of live performance and studio session work. A native Washingtonian.
My artistic foundation is deeply rooted in Gospel, Classic Soul, New-Age Jazz, and indigenous D.C. Go-Go.
I launched my professional career at age 13, gigging with the soul-jazz cover band Ray Clark and the Nighthawks. There, I mastered my live contemporary piano chops covering timeless 1950s standards.
Over the decades, his history evolved to include performances with renowned artist Eddie Baccus Jr.—collaborations that cement a highly verifiable, well-documented timeline of my professional legacy and deep roots in the live music community.
My ability to fuse R&B/Soul/Hip-Hop, & Trap with cinematic soundscapes earned me an endorsement from Grammy-winning producer Zaytoven.
