I Am Almost Definitely Not A Spy

Very happy autumn, everyone! The heat is definitely coming down, although hurricane season here in the northeast is in full swing. I say this because it was a little touch and go getting Belmont Porchfest in a week ago. However, I had a great time, and then I immediately boarded a plane for the Rhineland,… More »

On Creativity and Staying Human

I have something illicit and a little “purple” to share with you. (But first shameless plugs, because I really want to see you and play music for you (and I’ll bring this all together again in a minute).

The People That You Meet

My hand is finally (mostly) healed, so I’ve been taking advantage of the opportunity to get back out and play more, which has reminded me of the blessing of community that comes with being a performing and writing musician.I know I have written before about Terrance Reeves, Danielle Pinals, Andrew Geano, and our open mic… More »

Thank You to the Kind Voices

“Please tell me this isn’t like when your mom sings in church or something,” my friend said. I, the practicing musician of over 40 years and semi-professional musician with a few hundred appearances under my belt, replied “Hunh?” in my most coherent and intelligent way. “Yeah, I mean it’s a great hobby and all…” Dear… More »

No Idea What I’m Doing

It’s been a little while since I’ve written. I know that. Life tends to get in the way of a lot of things that I would like to do these days, but that’s in no way complaining on my part. I’ve had the distinct pleasure of being back-and-forth to Europe, spending some time with people… More »
