My Musical Journey:
I knew that music and especially guitar was going to be a very big part of who I would grow to be. I started playing guitar at the age of 9 and started to learn the rest of the instruments over the next number of years.
When I was 18 years old I made a promise to God that my music would forever be for Him. He had rescued me from a serious motorcycle accident. The conception of Little Pacific Studios began many years after that accident in 1995 with a good friend Dan Helling, who since went to heaven on January 12, 2017. We wanted a musical ministry for Jesus. Now in my 50’s, I want to take every opportunity to continue on my promise to God.
I am currently involved in a local bible believing church with my wife, Annette. For the past two years I was privileged to go into a maximum security prison to sing praise & worship with my acoustic guitar and witness to inmates.
My hope is that the music will reach its destination through God’s Spirit to encourage, soothe, and lead many to Jesus Christ. All lyrics, singing, instrumentation, recording, mixing, and mastering of songs on this site (unless noted) were personally done by me… with all of God’s inspiration.
Thank you so much for reading ~ God Bless

This is my dear friend Wes Cantrell who went to be with Jesus on January 15, 2019. He left me his most cherished possession, his beautiful Ibanez guitar. Both of us have played electric Ibanez guitars as far back as I can remember. I want to make this guitar sing for him! Love you Wes , see you someday buddy!
