ABOUT

A full-time, working band (eventually if not right away) that performs original music as well as music from approximately the 1890s through 1960s with possibilities of inspiration and music through the 1980s. (This is just the time period of music that I love and is cohesive with the style of music that I write.) This includes Christian/Gospel music.
The main idea of the band is to cultivate a new, unique sound (something I am coining Nouveau Classic) that is based on my personal arrangement style as well as inspired by the styles of classic artists such as Rudy Vallee, Bing Crosby, Jo Stafford, Dean Martin, Glenn Miller, Frank Sinatra, etc. and the essence of which is merely to make good music with a classic sound, modern production, and captivating performance that glorifies God.
