Since that time he has been touring with famous musicians and bands such as the Eagles, Don Felder, Bryan Adams, Melissa Etheridge and Stevie Nicks. He co-wrote Don Henley's single, "Everything is Different Now", and co-wrote a song on Stevie Nicks record, "That Made Me Stronger",[1] which was produced by his Henley touring mate, Sheryl Crow.
