Inside The Music - my vlog about all things relating to my multi-faceted music career and my life in general.

May 24, 2025

From the time I first picked up a guitar, I dreamed of being a professional musician of singing for people all over the world and playing music that means something. That dream took me on an unexpected journey and my wife, Stephanie, and I made a huge leap when we started performing on cruise ships.

I didn’t grow up dreaming of cruise ships, I dreamed of music, stages, crowds singing along, and all these years later I’m living that dream

I used to haul gear into dive bars and play for tips between shifts at various day job. Now Stephanie and I are performing on cruise ship stages, singing every night and waking up in a new country every morning. We’re not famous, but we’re making a living as full-time musicians.

This is the real journey of two working musicians, the hustle, the travel, the music, and what it really means to chase your dreams.
