The life of an Austin working musician, recording engineer, general music whore, and Breakfast Taco fiend.

I scoop John Kelso!

So there’s this guy named John Kelso who writes for the Austin-American States­man. He writes a down-home sort of com­edy col­umn, kind of a Dave Berry fil­tered thru Cream Gravy, deep fried and served up with a side of grits at the Threadgill’s Gospel Brunch. Any­way, his story yes­ter­day was about Scott Wade’s dust art. […]

Short Birthday Blog!!

So this is a lit­tle corny, but it’s my birth­day. Hooray for me. I’m a lit­tle ner­vous about turn­ing 23, but you know, life goes on. I just played a very nice gig yes­ter­day out in Lake­way at the Iguana Grill, which boasts the “Sec­ond best view of the Lake”. The first is obvi­ously Oasis, […]

Behold the Breakfast Taco

So I never took this blog all that seri­ously. I wanted to do it just for fun, and to keep myself occu­pied with some­thing cre­ative and pro­duc­tive in my spare time, instead of watch­ing TV.

Love Monkey Studio night!!

Musicians and Speedskaters

This a joint blog post my brother and I cooked up together. It appears on his blog as well. Cur­rently I’m a pro­fes­sional Musi­cian in Austin, Texas, and Andrew is a national cal­iber Speed­skater in Salt Lake City. We both have moved to the towns that attract & focus the top of our pro­fes­sions. This is […]

Just to keep everyone updated

I’m not blog­ging as much as I would like. I don’t think there’s a par­tic­u­lar rea­son, I’ve just felt kind of busy. But there’s a few things worth men­tion­ing: 1) It was a year ago yes­ter­day that my Grand­mother died, as I wrote about here. My Grandpa wrote me and my fam­ily a really nice […]

Some people…

Have way too much spare time. Appar­ently, if you drop a Men­tos into a bot­tle of Diet Coke, crazi­ness ensues. So check what these two dorks pulled off: To see more of their weird­ness, check out their site here.
