Happy New Year all! Yes, I know it’s a bit late. I closed out 2019 with three rather big and very different gigs all within a week. It was a bit crazy and I logged a lot of miles, but it was fun. I played lead alto for a made-for-tv christmas special at the Beacon […]

I’m back in Ohio and it’s long past time for an update! Big changes are all around this fall. I’ve left the cruise world behind…it was a good run (8+ years) and now it’s time to move on. I’m now in grad school at Ohio University, living in Athens, Ohio. I’m loving being back in […]

This is a video from last spring, March 10th to be specific. I meant to post this video earlier but I totally forgot. Nonetheless, this was a set that I did with the improvising trio, Sonikora at the Vanderelli Room in Columbus’s Franklinton Arts District. It was a real treat playing with these guys and […]

Introducing EDDA

posted by

There’s a massive cold front rolling in and I’ve listened to Björk’s ‘Utopia’ twice through so it feels like as good a time as any to announce my new saxo/flute/DJ venture. It’s called EDDA and the concept is basically me improvising on saxophone and flute over a variety of deep-house, down-tempo, chill-out, and dub music. […]

Altissimo, Jungle Flute, and Deep-House Music. Summer in the Mediterranean.

Summer has finished here in the Mediterranean. It’s cooler now and I’m writing this long overdue update from a rainy Sicily. It’s been an interesting summer. I’ve devoted a lot of hours to really focused practicing and have developed some new things. This summer has mostly been about Altissimo, flute doubling, house music, and Aperol […]
