I just recently moved to Los Angeles in search of TV/Film projects. I was fortunate to enjoy a successful career in the record business (Grammy-nominated Producer, multi-platinum/gold albums, A&R for Sony, composer for Warner/Chappell) but my heart seems to be in composing soundtracks so I am working hard to make a full transition from the record business into the film industry. I had the opportunity to score for Discovery Channel and just finished an amazingly funny pilot named RELATIVELY SUPER (Qico Films) featuring featuring Mark Hamill (Yes, Luke Skywalker himself!), Kevin Conroy, Gary Anthony Williams, Michael Dorn, Jon Heder, Jonathan Mangum, and others amazing talented actors. I sincerely hope to be able to collaborate with other Stage 32 members and make some beautiful art together!

Next June I will produce and direct my redemption of the spirit family drama entitled 'Hugs From God.' Sort of 'Peggy Sue Got Married' meets 'Its A Wonderful Life.' The set pieces are from Kathy Mattea, Jonathan Edwards and AJ Gundell...but I'd love to chat about the score. The budget on the film is $1.5mm...so this isn't a big budget job.

...on a side note, I have a friend who's father is one member of a Legendary American Music Band. He had a brief High of a Carear in a Duo(Him and a cousin..), but their Management blew up the act ... He is on Track to have quite a Solo act, and has the Wind of 1/2 the entire music Industry that will will get behind him as he moves forward (performers, from Dolly Parton to Jim Messina, to Willie ...He already is known as one of the top guitarists around, and He is beguining again to Record, and planning Tours...and yes he can sing about anything (very good strong unique voice...perfect recording musician) ...I just think he is missing some kind of edge to put him over the top. And I think it has to do with his Song choices, and he writes most of his own songs(has maybe a suite of 500+ he could record...). I am searching for maybe some kind of New modern genre for himself...kind of heroic, bluesy, southern rock. Glen Campbell found a unique, one of a kind sound thinking out of the box like this, just need more modern, and progressive niche. If any songs, New artists singing, writing something that rings a bell, let me know. People can listen to him play guitar all day...just needs more of an edge maybe. Can talk soon about my Project in the near future. R.
