In the early 1990s, he worked in live music production and toured the world with various rock groups including, Melvins, Nirvana, Sonic Youth, Beck, Pavement, Hole, Redd Kross, and more.
Shortly thereafter, Beck asked him to play guitar, but this union was short-lived when he left to form his own group Old Hickory, a musical outfit at the center of the once burgeoning Silver Lake indie rock scene.
For more than a decade, he owned and operated Bright Street Recorders where he produced music and ran recording sessions for acts including: Sia, Death Cab For Cutie, Ancestors, Imaad Wasif, Robyn Hitchcock, Lucinda Williams, Ben Harper, Lykke Li, Lord Heron, Nite Jewel, Julian Casablancas, Vampire Weekend, Fools Gold, Ricki Lee Jones, M Ward Blake Mills and Jenny Lewis.
Later that year he worked on various film and TV projects including Twilight, Parks and Recreation and Crossing Jordan.
