"I was thrilled when director Jack Baric asked me to score the movie "Port Town." It was an opportunity to create music of many different styles for one project. The documentary required very unique pieces of music filled with different moods, dramatic nuances and dynamics. My wife, Beth, suggested I write a song for the end credits. My goal for the song, "This Town," was to support the movie thematically and lyrically. My band, Olio, had a great time recording it. I am proud to be a part of San Pedro history and thank God for this experience. Thanks for listening!"
