What a hell of a week ! When I look outside there’s a smokey haze amongst everything. It was worse yesterday than today though, parts of LA came in at 120 degrees fahrenheit this past week, while where I live about 40 miles north and on the coast it usually doesn’t get past 80. Fires […]

August 31, 2020
It’s been a great last couple of days. Yesterday was my birthday and all the merriment that goes along with that. The weather is perfect and I have a steady flow of work in my home studio, I have a livestream concert coming up with Robert Rodriguez at a private house in Oceanside CA on […]
August 19, 2020
Covid 19th, 2020. I almost never hear about anything else. Oh, did I say Covid instead of August? I thought so. Well you’ll have to excuse me on that one, but its not that far fetched to mix it up a little as I so often do. You may have other little habits and things […]
August 10, 2020
We’re 5 months into this Covid thing and here we are. Everything has been shifted. There have been tons of “new online medical experts” and all sorts of new opinions and points of view. Some feel as if this is a political thing. Others feel differently Some are on the left, some take the right […]
July 15th
I hope everybody is having a good summer. Here in Southern California, the summers are great, although a few earthquakes weren’t in the forecast. That took everybody by surprise. Thankfully, everything is ok here. Aside from that, I have a new studio space in my backyard up and running ! Despite that episode of ground […]
March 1st 2019
You don’t get much of a winter here in Southern CA, but I can say I’ve become a real wimp in terms of any type of cold below 60 degrees Fahrenheit. NAMM has come and gone, and although I always enjoy going there in Anaheim, and seeing some very dear friends and associates and all […]
Inspiring week….
This week has been very inspiring for me. There have been some bummers too. Roy Hargrove passed unexpectedly. I didn’t know Roy, but I loved the way he played and was a big fan of his music. On the other hand, I’ve been unusually busy and have been blessed with an abundance of work. Over […]

Happy New Year
I know most of us have heard about all the tragic occurrences In my area. There’s been an enormous wildfire, (the largest ever in California). Fortunately it didn’t get around to my neighborhood, but boy it sure caused some damage to many people’s homes and lives. Rough stuff. On top of that, there’s been these […]
Heatwave…
Here’s a picture of a gig a played in San Francisco a few months ago with Barabas Lorinc from Hungary when he came to the states. Anyway… it’s not really a heatwave where I live on the coast, but inland a bit it’s an oven out there. I am at the moment tending to some music that […]
