Update: 2012

A lot has happened since I last checked in here. First and foremost I became a Dad!!! By far the most challenging and amazing experience of my life. Second, I achieved something else that I had always dreamed of doing. Scoring a film and seeing it in a theater with an audience! That's right I wrote the score to the independent film called "Unseen" (from Writer/Director Peter Tedone). The film has been very well received. It has been accepted into several film festivals and has been nominated for multiple awards! I had the pleasure of seeing the film during the Long Island Film Festival. Wow what a great experience! I hope to do more of it in the future. BTW the soundtrack is available at iTunes and Amazon. Next,Is my newest recording project. I would put it in the "post rock" genre. Completely instrumental not a lot of guitar(believe it or not) If you like or have heard of bands like The American Dollar,The Echelon Effect,and God Is An Astronaut,you will dig this. I plan on giving it a band name and hope to have it out before the end of the year. Can't wait for people to hear it. My band Half Circle Drive continues to write and will be looking to record new material in the very near future. Hope you had a chance to check out our latest EP "Shine Through." Finally, I hope to get started on a new solo record. There WILL be LOTS of guitars on this one. That's it from here. Hope you are enjoying your summer. Thanks for listening! -Craig
