This WEB SITE has been designed to familiarize people with my music. There are four diverse CDs that may be downloaded. Each of the individual CD showcases a slightly different form of my unique writing style and musicality.

I am currently hoping to place songs with either Texas or Nashville artists for my up-tempo guitar -driven Rock/country. I have songs for either male or female vocalists. The songs have been played in many fashions so they are adaptable for those songwriters that are looking for quality songs with breakthrough potential. If your a songwriter who has done a number of albums are in a Band that is not moving ahead I can help with my songs which should give your Band a kick start back up.

I am also going back to concentrate playing solo which I have already done in Austin. I feel there is a very good opportunity here in Austin to make a name for myself , get my songs heard and for people to hear my diverse working class lyrics mixed with fast paced Rythmn Guitar different than I would say than anyone here in Austin. It will be more Acoustic Rock than Folk more drinking music than easy listening.

Now that "Working Man has had it's run from my old Leidel/Longchamp Band I plan to go back in studio with new songs in January/Febuary . "Working Man" is still available at places below if you have not heard it check it out.

Finally special thanks to Mike Rugen for taking over more of the day to day Business of Rugen Productions and Songs and leaving me more time to concentrate on what I do best playing and recording.

Thanks
