With Terri Nunn of Berlin
With The Nancy Rayguns
With Survivor
I'm a Las Vegas-based keyboardist, recently transplanted from Los Angeles. I previously played with 80's synthpop act Berlin ("Take My Breath Away", "The Metro") from 2000-2007, did a yearlong stint with Survivor last year ("Eye Of The Tiger", "The Search Is Over") and played 56 summer shows with 80's cover band The Nancy Rayguns at Fremont Street Experience in Downtown Las Vegas last summer.
I've spent years in the trenches with numerous cover acts and have an encyclopedic knowledge of 70's, 80's, and current songs. I specialize in creating "just-like-the-record" synth sounds and backing tracks- I even wrote a book on keyboard programming for Backbeat Books last year, so when I say I wrote the book on making keyboard sounds, I really mean it :P I'm also a solid vocalist and guitar player. Below is a quick video of some recent live performances:
My original project Celebutante also has numerous film and TV track placements, including "Jersey Shore", "The Bold And The Beautiful", "Burn Notice", "Monk", and "Paris Hilton's My New BFF", and won a BMI award in 2008 for my work on the Berlin track "Scream", used as the theme song on the Lifetime drama "Angela's Eyes".
I'm currently seeking paid live and studio gigs playing keys and creating tracks in the Vegas area- contact me HERE. Thanks!
