Productions
Producing is a sort of alchemy - helping musicians
transmute the sounds in their heads into recordings. I love working with people
whose music expresses deep connections to the earth, to their communities and
to their own hearts. The results are always
good for the soul.
I've been honored to have produced
recordings with many such artists, some of whom are represented here.

Bergan Riley
- Swing Me
Bergan Riley's
CD "Swing Me" is a collection of songs that tell stories of love and faithfulness,
the struggles of balancing family and self, learning to value the wisdom of elders,
the energy of youth, and honoring those gone before. The musical styles range
from folk to country to western swing yodels, demonstrating a small fraction
of Bergan's broad musical tastes.
