I would have never thought that an opportunity would quite literally come overnight. Last night, I spent all the evening hours working with the team for the film, "Inheritance." Currently, we are shooting at a restaraunt in Lancaster, CA, so I've decided to help out as an extra. It also seems like they might be interested in having me write the soundtrack.

New opportunity to work with Children's Hunger Fund once again. I feel privileged not only to support such a great organization, but also to submit some music for their videos to help further their cause. You can check them out at their website by visiting this link.

The album release is estimated to be mid-March. Most of the tracks are in the final stages of production, while the others are complete and ready for the release. Stay tuned to keep updated with news about the album, "Between War And Death."

I am excited to announce that I have finally found an album artwork designer. We're starting work on the cover for both the "Eternal Glory" single as well as the full length album, "Between War And Death." It's been great to work together these past couple days, and I'm very excited to be able to present the finished project to you all soon!
