Wait... WHAT?

- My dad was a monk

- My mom was a nun

- I'm a Recording Academy / GRAMMY Awards Member

- I've performed for crowds of over 25,000 people

- I'm a 3-time TEDx performer

- I married my high school sweetheart

- We have two boys; one of them has Down Syndrome

Which one of these is true?

Well... all of them.

I know those bullet points are pretty rare but they play an essential role in who I am and what I do.

Well, hello there! Go do your thing and be awesome today…

Music creates community! Last night I was joined by Jordan Edelheit, Marcie Bachrach & @jami1031 as we made some beats with the children & families of @rmhcincinnati. The joy & smiles make it worthwhile every time!

Plus, I’m really proud of my djembe stacking skills 😂

Our annual golf outing benefiting @cincychildrens was a huge success! Our non-profit @hearthehope was thrilled to present a check for $37,500!

This money will benefit Project SEARCH and the Family Charitable Care Fund at Cincinnati Children's Hospital.

It takes a village to make this happen… well done to each of you! Let’s do it again next year!

When I'm behind the console, it's usually in the studio. But this time, my son's school musical needed a little live sound support at rehearsals, so I jumped in.

It was a blast watching the kids bring their characters to life and the directors did an amazing job guiding the kids to being their absolute best.

I believe it's so important to encourage creativity through music, the arts, etc. It's up to us to contribute in any way we can to keep the spirit going. And it was a huge bonus to join my son on the ride for this one. Until next time...

When people ask me who’s my favorite guitarist, it’s an easy answer… @thewarrenhaynes. He has been inspiring my playing for 30 years. It was great seeing him with @govtmule last night. Amazing show!

Behind the scenes working on the new @tedxcincinnati intro music for their upcoming speaker videos.

@chris.lah.16 is the Executive Director of @tedxcincinnati and brings a unique approach to his guitar playing. Notice, he plays left-handed but with a right-handed guitar. It always makes way for some brilliant & unusual phrasing.

The last few weeks have been filled with listening to amazing GRAMMY® submissions. But most importantly, meeting the creators behind these songs.

I'm grateful for crossing paths with many of you and excited about already planning to work on future projects with several members from my Recording Academy family.

For those of you that considered my submission this year, thank you for listening!

I’m still in the process of making space to release some of my own songs from over the years. This one is probably next.

If you have a song deep inside, maybe it’s time to get it out. The world needs it!

I've heard studies show music has many health benefits. But I won't even bother researching this claim... I see it firsthand on a regular basis.

My partners & I at @hearthehope visit @rmhcincinnati once a month to share the power of music with the house guests.

Many of these kids and their families are facing substantial challenges. But for the hour that we make music together, the pain & worries seem to fade away, even if it's for a moment.

It is such a fulfilling experience to be a part of lightening their journey. Thank you for the opportunity.

No One Knows is a song I wrote when I was 16 yrs old. I recorded it a little while back and decided to share it with you. Enjoy!

I’m taking my own advice now...

I’ve been fortunate to have spent the last 25 years of my career helping others make their musical dreams come true. I have worked with artists of all levels... from major industry names to the hobbyist.

I LOVE what I do! And I have loved working with many of these talented people, across hundreds of releases.

But believe it or not, I haven’t released music as a solo artist until NOW! I looked at my music catalog and decided to start with a song I wrote when I was 16 yrs old, called No One Knows.

It’s a blues/rock tune that holds a special place in my heart. It will be available everywhere this Friday Sept. 5th.

What’s the message here? Life is short... it’s time to write that song, record it, and share your talent with the world!

Get the song at link in bio.

My Matchless was designed & built by Mark Sampson in 1994. Mark passed away this weekend. I’m sad but grateful for his work. I’m sure many guitarists feel the same when I say THANK YOU, Mark, for giving us such an amazing tool allowing our souls to shine through our guitars. He’s a true legend throughout the guitar community.
