Making, recording, and collecting music in Portland, OR.
Working out of Jackpot! Recording Studio,
The Hallowed Halls, and his home studio.
As a producer, I am always my clients'
and collaborators' number one fan.
I will judge you for how good your good ideas are,
not how bad your bad ideas are.
It's all about getting the best sounds for an excited crowd,
or giving everyone what they need in the studio
to feel artistically safe and inspired to be
the best version of themselves for the project.
I take having fun very seriously -
balancing hard work with happiness is so important.
There is nowhere I would ever rather be than your show or session,
and nothing I would rather be doing...
Whether keeping it classic or creating something unique,
you will always get what you're looking for with quality.

Art and love are how his life has any meaning.
Being it, making it, constantly consuming it,
almost never good enough, always growing,
always learning...
Most of the released Rain Dares music as of now
is unfinished (both by choice and tragically),
though both can get pretty cringe the further back you go.
The books are definitely worth buying though!
