Along with my friend and section partner, trumpeter Julio Diaz, we've played on and arranged horn sessions for hundreds of artists. We've played countless live shows together and sound like a real section (not just whoever was available that day). Our credits cover the best of pop, latin, country, americana, blues, and christian recording artists.
We've played and recorded with:
The Mavericks, Desmond Child, Ricky Martin, Little Big Town, The Afro Cuban All-Stars, Frankie Valli, Julio Iglesias, Sir Cliff Richards, Brendan Benson, Marc Anthony, Dara Maclean, Big and Rich, Kid Rock, Luke Byran, Lionel Richie, Ben Rector, Celia Cruz, The Royal Southern Brotherhood, Jeff Cohen, Colbie Caillat, Dave Barnes, James Slater, Randy Houser, Jake Owen, and Yo-Yo Ma. We have appeared on the Grammy Awards, The Voice, Good Morning America, The Tonight Show, Conan, Late Night with Seth Meyers, PBS Great Performances, and the CMA, CMT, ACM, and AMA awards.
