OK, after two years, the newest CD is OUT!  "Don't Cha' Know"    features 13 great tracks including "Dance with my Father" by Luther, and a smokin' version of Summertime.  This album exudes Urban Contemporary like no other album.  Redmond based producer/Kenny G Guitarist  John Raymond let out all of the stops with this jammin' album.  His mixes culminate in a smooth jazz record that is destined for number one on the jazz charts!  "Love You Just So Much"  sets the stage for a recording that is unparalleled in today's smooth jazz movement, and the album closes with "Lonely Hearts at Sea" that will touch your deepest emotional heart strings!

"What Makes Me Tick?"........."a passion for life, for my family, and to pass on the art of jazz to children!"  "I try to improve every day in my personal growth, as a father,  a husband, and as a musician."

 I also love my 1980 TR-7 Triumph Convertible!!!"  My best friend "Qually" sold it to me in 2006......look for the updates of my restoration process entitled  "dmo's toy!"

I have always marveled at the greatness of my Grandfather Ali Motamedy.  His hope was for a peaceful world, and he worked for his vision  while he was the ambassador to the first League of Nations, as well as his ambassadorship to Canada and the Hauge while he lived in Iran. 

My father was a Pediatrician and healed children through his gift of life.   I recently met a young woman who remembered a doctor that performed an operation and saved her life 40 years ago.  That doctor was my father!  The circle of life encompasses us all, and we all are connected on our earth.

 My goal is to continue to bring people of all cultures and ethnic backgrounds together through my gift of music.  Music is the healing language of all mankind, and I hope that my small contribution brings peace, joy, and happiness to your hearts!  I am proud of my heritage as an Iranian, and am proud to be born and raised in the beautiful United States of America.  I wish you all love.

"Dmo"  will be performing many exciting shows this year!  Darren's passion for performance is evident with his soulful stage presence.  We welcome you to enjoy one of the best saxophonist in the smooth jazz world!
