Band Leader & electric guitarist for modern country showcase, Dakota Crossing. Bass player for numerous projects, including Foreigner Unauthorized(founding member through 2017), Wishes Were Fishes (SKA Reggae Rock), Crusch (Smooth Jazz)...and many more over the past nearly 40 years. #music An unfinished idea had that flirts with the blues/rock form...was kinda fun to record. A live multitrack capture of my smooth jazz project, Crush performing during a show in 2021. No overdubs or corrections made to this mix, so it's Crush in all it's glory...along with a few clams! Jim Belt: Bass Steve Bryant: Drums Bill Lutgens: Sax & FLute Kevin Buhler: Keys / B3 My first recording soon after the world shut down in March of 2020. Leaned into my smooth jazz vibe on this one a bit. Just one of several original instrumental ideas that I recorded during COVID days. "Stand Up" has a late 80's, early 90's vibe....wonder where that came from?!

My first recording soon after the world shut down in March of 2020. Leaned into my smooth jazz vibe on this one a bit.
