He’s an experienced, skilled, and creative selector - one who makes the well-worn quipof a "DJ’s DJ" seem pithy and redundant. As a part of Sunset Sound System, he and his partnershave peppered California and beyond with 25 years of thoughtfully conceived and carefullycrafted events, chief among them the delightful and dreamy Sunset Campout. He presentsspacey, tough, intuitive, and often psychedelic music to the universe via his (and C.L.A.W.S.) label,Squirrels On Film.
