This week’s shows. 9-8-16

posted by

Celtic music, a little bit of swing, and lots of pop ballads this week. Actually…mostly pop music for the last few days, which has been cool. Seems like it’s been a while since I’ve gotten to sink my teeth into some aggressive alto playing.  First up was Claire Vinkesteijn. This was the beginning of the […]

This Week’s Shows 8-7-16

I’m back in the Baltic on EC and have had the good fortune of MD’ing for some of my all-time favorite entertainers this week. I’ve been all over the map both geographically and stylistically…Russia to Copenhagen and comedy-juggling to swing and musical theater. It’s been a great week and I’ve really enjoyed the shows. First up […]

Play However You Want [tomorrow night]

posted by

Many moons ago, as I was struggling through some Mendelssohn clarinet excerpts, I was given some sage advice in the form of a question. She said to me, “you know you can play the clarinet however you want, right?” I’ve thought about that a lot since that day. What she meant wasn’t that I could […]

A little bit about music, a little about travel, maybe a humorous observation or two… It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything so here’s a little update on what’s been going on. I’ve been back in Scandinavia onboard the Eclipse for almost two months now. The sun doesn’t really set these days…it just takes […]

Tico Tico

posted by

Here’s another demo track from my current project. This one is called Tico Tico, and was composed by Zequinha de Abreu in 1917. The first recording of this tune was done by Orquestra Colbaz in 1931. My version is quite a bit more modern, with overdriven guitars and synths. You might also recognize the tune from […]

Now that I have constant access to blazing fast wifi I found some videos of my band from Indiana days called Sobriquet. Here are two videos from our last gig. The first is an original tune on a pretty epic scale titled ‘Strophs’ and the second is a cover of Radiohead’s ‘Morning Bell.’ The videos […]
