PICKING UP THE PAPERS..

It's been a while since I've posted anything newsworthy on here, but I'm excited to announce that I'm making my way up the coast of California right now to record in Seattle, Washington. I'll be recording an album entitled "Loomings" which has been kicking around for some time... As a matter of fact, I was up in Seattle four years ago to rehearse songs for the album. My friends, fellow musicians, and I will be picking up where we left off then and hopefully getting the majority of recording done, finishing anything else down in Los Angeles.


I have played most of the songs from "Loomings" live for years, solo or with a band. You can see and hear me perform some of them on OneNightMusic.com

FRONT PORCH PICKIN'

My friend Marshall Anderson from Old Woodside found out I could get by on a banjo and had me sit in on these videos. The songs are his, with Dees Stribling playing the washboard, xylophone and piano. I'm also playing the huge pipe organ in the last video - I'm out of frame and it's barely audible, but take my word for it.
