First Time 'Round was my first attempt at home recording. This album contains 14 original songs written & composed between 1997-2002, and finally recorded, mixed & engineered from 2000-2002 at Beach House Attic Studios, Inc. - my first studio located on the shores of the Puget Sound in Tacoma, WA.

I've included samples of 4 songs below for your listening pleasure. The titles of the other 10 songs are listed, and as time goes on, will include more samples of some of these songs as well.

No Second Thoughts immediately followed my first album First Time 'Round. It was a time of prolific writing and composing as I was going through a major transition in my life and my music was a means for feeding my resilience and helping me to survive. Consider this album as a continuation of my first album (I just didn't want to jam all the songs into one album!).

This was the second album recorded at Beach House Attic Studios, Inc. but was recorded in a completely new facility (still located in Tacoma, WA, and only a few blocks down the road from the original studio). The theme of the album reflects how my faith in love was restored, how some deep reflection shed new light on my life, and how the new love of my life resurrected me (thank you Sharon)!

This album contains 11 new songs and I have included 5 samples to listen to. The titles of the other songs on the album are also listed.
