Besides my voice work, I play many musical instruments and have a CD of simple piano works called "Make Me Beautiful" available at cdbaby.com. I just finished writing my second film score which can be heard at www.fatheraustin.com. I have a great sense of humor and am VERY easy to work with. I am a down to earth, regular kind of guy. Thanks for considering me.
