LAVA Music

I've had the great pleasure of working with Ernest Troost on more than one occasion. Ernest is an Emmy award-winner who makes his living composing scores for TV and films. Equally adept as a singer/songwriter, he was a Kerrville New Folk winner in 2009. Beyond his talents, Ernest is one of the gentlest, kindest musicians I've ever worked with.
