About Me

After closing a Sign and graphic business in Cleveland, Ohio, I relocated to the Los Angeles area in the winter of 2005 (Brrrr, just in time to escape the snow!) I've had the opportunity to work with and record for some phenomenal artists, many who are originally from Cleveland. For the last 15 years, Ive been performing and writing as much as possible and decided it was time to push the reset button on my career. My recording session gigs have included playing on numerous , Jazz, Pop, R&B and Gospel projects.The inspiration and ideas continue to flow for now and I recently released a new CD ( "From the Soul to the Strings") in November of 2007. I recorded another CD project in London with some good friends, Joey Elkins, Steven Russell, and Nixon Rosembert. The CD is currently being mixed and mastered and should be released in the summer of 2008. After experiencing a spiritual shift in creativity, I produced a worship CD called, "The heart Speaks". It is an instrumental (Acoustic Guitar and Piano) of quiet, reflective tunes intended for prayer, relaxation or meditation. Please contact me if you're interested in hearing and purchasing this music. I am currently working on a new Gospel collaboration CD and in the final stages of my latest Jazz CD "The Power of Touch". Please feel free to contact me at: byrd4007@yahoo.com
