I'm a bedroom recordist, a traveling writer, a drifter. Currently, I'm involved with a new project called "Royal Vagabonds" with long time collaborator Josh Werner. I have made two solo records, "So Long" and "Louque the Drifter" and am currently putting together a third. There will be no live shows for the time being, but will be playing shows with the vagabonds. Also, I'm beginning a new project with long time friend John Ellis. Thanks for stopping by and welcome to my community!
