Vibes
I am a father, a musician, an author, a filmmaker, and a computer nerd. In fewer words, I’m a 34 year old that has never felt as though I grew up. I am also exceptionally lucky to be able to chase my weird dreams, spend more time being a parent, and make cool videos of pretty much whatever I think is interesting at the moment. I hope you dig it as much as I have. If you don’t, please share it with someone you dislike. (READ STUFF I WROTE)

Things I filmed
“Derek is outrageously unattractive, but some would say he is also talented.”
— Nick Schmitto, producer
Music
Derek Porterfield and All of His Friends
Like so many young men before me, I picked up a guitar not in the interest of any particular song or the desire to learn a new skill. I just wanted to impress girls. Though it didn’t exactly offset my terrible personality, I am forever grateful for the therapeutic and lifelong joy the instrument has brought me.
I’ve made records as An Autumn Rain and as the too-long-to-be-SEO-friendly Derek Porterfield and All of His Friends. The newest one is right here. Everything else is a click away.
