Sad news. Chris Rea has died. If you haven’t heard his music, take a few minutes and listen to his songs, On The Beach, Josephine and more. I promise you’ll love it.
RIP.

Today is Max the Akita’s gotcha day. We adopted this precious, darling boy 9 years ago and can never thank Humane Society of Ventura County enough for letting us become his parents after a thorough screening and interview process. We love him to the moon and back. #gotchaday #akitainu #adoptdontshop

My studio in Los Angeles in all its glory. I worked on some amazing projects in this room including recording vocals for a David Garrett album, voice over sessions for Revlon and endless song writing and mix sessions. Photography Don Saban

Max the Akita and I at Venice beach, LA, California sometime in 2018. Today marks 5 years in Europe and I feel like reminiscing.
