In addition to his role as an A&R representative and scout for various record labels, he was also the guy who referred musicians to bands and vice versa. He gave young aspiring musicians in LA the opportunities to live our dreams, performing with world class artists. He gave a lot of your favorite musicians their start, which changed the trajectory of their entire lives
