"The Storm" is my second EP and reflects the direction my music is moving in, with a diversity of music styles from Indie Rock, Alt Rock, Pop/Rock, Metal and Rock.

Each of the songs features a different vocalist, chosen to match the style and feel of the track. The vocal work of each of my featured collaborators was outstanding and I am so fortunate to be able to work together with such talented, passionate and professional artists hailing from the USA, Germany, South Africa and the UK.

I trust that you enjoy listening to it as much as I've enjoyed putting it all together. Also a big shout out to the wonderful Davide Carbone from S:amplify Studios for all his assistance and support as well.
