About Me

My Jazz Story

I love jazz because it is in my blood, it's my history, it makes me feel great to play it, hear it, and I know it makes the planet a better place to live. I was first exposed to jazz by a college friend. Byard Lancaster was my gateway to seriously studying and playing jazz. The best show I ever attended was Abdullah Ibrahim. The first jazz record I bought was Bitches Brew. My advice to new listeners... open your ears and heart.

My House Concert Story

My last great jazz show are listening to and being part of PJP' Satellites Are Spinning series in homage to Sun Ra
