Artist picture
Sold a song to Disney at 12, masterminded a family band in my teens, wrote theater/cabaret in NYC in my youth, quit songwriting for a spell, now I’m back!
I love writing songs that capture strong feelings I’ve had about a time, person or place, and that wrap you in those feelings with a sumptuous arrangement and much to surprise the ear. I’m drawn to seductive rhythms and sophisticated chords, and themes of longing, carnality and joy. I want my listeners to be astonished!

Story behind the song
We imagined a long-haul trucker who has to work on Christmas. There aren’t enough songs about people who have to work on Christmas!
Lyrics
ON THE ROAD AT CHRISTMAS Dreaming of the tree Smiling faces gathered there Friends and family Girls and boys and Yuletide joys All happening without me ON THE ROAD AT CHRISTMAS Headlights catch the snow Leading me still farther From the place I want to go In the rear view mirror The colored lights still glow ON THE ROAD AT CHRISTMAS Still I’ll be home soon Two more sleeps A few more miles And home by afternoon What a merry Christmas That will be ON THE ROAD AT CHRISTMAS Dreaming of the tree
