Sunshine Ave. Label

I've spent most of the last twenty years producing other peoples' music. Now it's time to put my energy into being a musician again and getting my music out into the world. With that in mind, I created the Sunshine Ave. Label.

Although my music is rooted heavily in 60s jazz, being a guitar player, I also like rock and all the other forms of music I've experienced through the years and that have influenced my playing. I like music that warms the spirit and touches the heart. There is a great power in music, and if mine can bring some hope and happiness, that's the most rewarding thing for me as a musician. Through the Sunshine Ave. Label, I'd like to offer not only jazz, but music that bridges all genres.
