My most notable recent work would be recording with Jake Shimabokuru in Nashville (2017).  He is known for a fantastic rendition of "My Guitar Gently Weeps" on Ukulele.  He's a world-class musician and I would highly encourage supporting him by visiting his website (link below) His album will be coming out soon and there has been talk of possible future projects with him as well...Pretty exciting.

I have been in studio for a while.  Currently working on a project that mostly involves the ukulele but includes a wide range of instruments and styles.  The playlist of the beta-test videos is available here:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F60pkj8cn5w&list=PLo92P_ROJsd_s9GCnk5UggghHPFtQTt-E

In 2013, I performed with the Fresno CC Wind Orchestra at Carnegie Hall in NYC and at Disney Hall in CA.

Where to begin?

I have taught at all levels, K-12 and also as an adjunct professor (Merced CC).

I have produced, recorded, and arranged/composed 5 albums.  Most of these have a heavy emphasis on mallet instruments (Marimba, Vibraphone, etc).  

I graduated college in percussion, but I play several other instruments.  Piano, bass, drums, and ukulele having been occupying most my time lately.

For years, I have been involved in almost every aspect of music; Ranging from: performance, arranging, transcribing, producing, engineering, lecturing, directing, and more.

Courses taught in my career so far:  Performance ensembles, music history, theory, philosophy, compostition, and appreciation. 

I've been on several tours with many different projects, but most notably was probably my 4 piece mallet choir (Allan Spencer Mallet Choir).  We have been playing for over a decade and samples of our music can be heard on the purchasing page.

A few of my local contemporaries include:  John Albano (Guitarist for Donny and Marie Osmond), Roddy Jackson (American Rockabilly and Rock n Roll Singer/Pianist).

I'm constantly working on musical projects from here to there.  Too much to type.  If you want to know more, I guess we'll have to meet.   :)
