Hog Branch Musicians

Please browse the drop-down menu on the "Bands and Singers" tab to meet some fantastic
musicians I work with, including Picnic, The Costellophones, MachineLove/elizabethGONE, AJ Belknap, Dean Seltzer, Content Love Knowles (and the VORTEX Theater), and the Wicked Brew Band. Then check out the links and songs below for some other musicians that I've played and/or recorded with and gotten to know personally over the years.

(Note: All songs on the music player at bottom right are from groups I've played with and/or produced. Just pause the site-wide player at the bottom of the page to listen to these tunes.)

Wicked Brew Band

I didn't really plan on it, but Wicked Brew became practically a full-time job -- and full-time party -- in 2008. We played all over Texas and made trips outside the Republic as well. Catch this band live if at all possible. You will have fun! In 2009, I'll be splitting my time a bit more, playing with Dean Seltzer & the Redneck Mothers and working in theater orchestras and onstage in a couple of musicals.

And here's a funny video of our drummer Nick Chambers being attacked by a fan in Mineral Wells. Watch that skirt near the fan, girl!
