Making Records With Community Support
My supporters make it possible for me to work without constantly freaking out about money. They allow me keep my services exceptionally affordable and to make studio upgrades that I would not otherwise be able to pay for on my own. Consider contributing to my creative journey with a personal grant or gear purchase!

Thank YOU!
I am eternally grateful to the following people and businesses for literally making it possible for me to do what I do.
Uribe Therapy - I would be flat out unable to do what I do with out Michelle Uribe. She is an incredible therapist, an amazing person, my staunchest supporter, and my beautiful wife! Thank you my love!
Dead End Art Studio, Dripping Springs TX - My work would be next to impossible without the love and support (both personal and financial) of my old fiends and comrades in art, Amanda Walker and Tom Beach. Thank you so much!!! Please check out their incredible art, studio space and gallery: deadendartstudio.com
Andy Loomis, Austin, TX - Andy has been supporting my musical endeavors since the late 1980s. He's been part of my recording and mixing journey as a band mate, a trusted set of ears and by graciously allowing me to experiment on his own awesome music. He was one of the first people to actually pay me to do this. Thank you my friend!
Dalton Vaughan, Loveland, CO - Dalton and I go way, way back. He has always been a huge booster of my work and continues encouraging me and helping to make it financially possible to do what I do. If you are interested in getting gigs in Northern Colorado, Dalton is the man. Thanks buddy, you're the best! www.facebook.com/landofbands/

Help Me Help Artists Make Records!
Monthly contributions are the gold standard for artistic support. This is how I can consistently enhance my studio space and keep my technology fresh and functioning... and pay my rent!
Another great way to support the cause is to make a one time contribution. Did you know that in the US you can gift an individual a lump sum up to $19,000 per year tax free? That's enough money to fund the full production of up to four full length albums and press them on vinyl. (If you're thinking "no way" to the previous statement, one of my super powers is maximizing budget potential through crowdfunding, matching contributions and deft project management.) These kinds of contributions allow me to go out and scout for bands and artists that I want to produce and show up to the table with a plan and backing. Now, for most of us $19k is a shitload of money. If you have the ability to throw down that kind of cheddar, please, by all means do! But, if you're a mere financial mortal like me, any fraction of that is incredibly helpful.
Are you a music and recording gear head? Or maybe just the Santa Clause type? Contributing to the arsenal of audio equipment required to make records could be the move. I have a laundry list of gear that I would love to get my hands on. Have a look and if something catches your eye, you know what to do!
