“There is geometry in the humming of the strings… there is magic in the spacing of the spheres”... I can write that song. To pour out my soul factors across skies as an anthem to the honorables who built before me, the architects of my existence. I ask that it amount to masterful melody, a Reel to the Benefactors of my dreams & Donors of my tools… I pray they sing in shared resonance, pound in time on the tabor, their wind whistle on the fife, and let us dance starry Heavens… FSA Scotland.

Some History
Scotland the Brave! Erin Go Bragh! Long Live the Scotland the Brave! Erin Go Bragh! Queen! Viva Italia! Vive la France! Leef Lang Nederland! & La Suisse, Sverige, Norge & Danmark, Deutschland, Polska, Viva Espana & Sudamerica, and ALL!! ONE WORLD, ONE LOVE!
I began in Seattle as a Street Musician in the famous Pike Place Market & the Seattle Theatre Community. I was found by the directors of films, The Chocolate War & Class of 1999, shot there & made my road to LA, where I made films, Wild at Heart, Wild Orchid 2, Dark Side of Genius, The Little Death, Broken Vessels, etc. I played roles in TV’s Fame LA, Outer Limits, Dark Skies (as Jim Morrison) & Red Shoe Diaries. My Concept CD, Albion Moonlight & the Sea of Troubles, uses poetry, image & sound design. It's compared to David Bowie & Pink Floyd, on CDBaby. Its songs are in TV’s Party of Five & films, Broken Vessels & Crimes of the Past. Jack Douglas (Aerosmith, John Lennon) & I worked at mastering Albion with a view to the next.
Fame LA featured my song, Ghost, produced by Global Artist Corrado Rustici. I sang Mark Cohn, Vonda Shepard, Amy Grant & Tara MacLean, too. My career has been guided by Andy Slater (Capitol Records), VH1 Executive Leah Horwitz, Italian Pier Forlani. Slater produced sessions with Warren Zevon, Don Henley’s band & Beastie Boys Adam Yauch & Mike D, at A&M Records. Those songs are my next release, Warren & the Whiskey Sessions. Dark Side of Genius has 2 of them on its Soundtrack.
Randy Jackson gave time at Sony, from which Corrado chose songs Ghost, Leave a Light On & Nothing 2 Lose & I wrote radio hits, Inside a Flower, Tell Me & Sleeping in Your Hand, with Italian star, Elisa & him. I wrote with late Guitar Hero Derek Frigo (RIP), in duo, U4EA, until his tragic death. He lives on in U4EA's songs, on CDBaby.
I wrote with Joey Molland (Badfinger, Beatles) & Tim Schools on 2008’s Wear a New Face. I lived on my family's ranch, near San Juan Capistrano for 5 years, as a Ranch Hand at Horse Boarding. I moved home to Seattle in 2008. I’m now co-producing the film trilogy, In Our Blood, with Garrett Bennett. I’m a Good Standing Fellow of The Society of Antiquaries of Scotland.
