Album Notes

Born and raised in the Deep South, and the son of a preacher, music was always in my life. After high school I studied composition, guitar performance, and music production at colleges in Louisiana, Texas, and Tennessee. Since then I have played professionally for nearly 20 years - both in Nashville and in the Air Force bands. I am currently guitarist in the Air Force Academy Band in Colorado Springs, CO - where my family and I have put down roots.


My most recent release, Reaching Through the Veil, is a modern interpretation of more than a dozen old hymns. Though this is not something new, I believe the musical style is original. Think along the lines of Pat Metheny, Mike Oldfield, Phil Keaggy. It could be classified sometimes as Lite Jazz, sometimes New Age, sometime Instrumental Pop, and even ambient or chill-out. Whatever you like to call it, I hope you enjoy listening to it, and will tell your friends, too.

The perfect smooth blend of sacred music. Comforting familiar yes, boring never!
Thank you Stephen for sharing your passion for music and the Creator with us. Your passion runs straight from your heart through your fingers into the rifts, then sweetly to the ears.
If this album was food, it would be a decadent chocolate mousse. Not too sweet, not too rich, but perfectly blended. Lovely!

Masterful

Masterful should suffice. Soothing to the soul. Peaceful. Worthy of constant air time on any jazz station.
