About Me

I play organ and horn for The Woes, Sister Blue and Spiritual Love, the York College Gospel Choir, The Hoarsemen, Tom Abbot's Little Big Bang Big Band, Marty Isenberg's Big Band, and have played on recordings of Jenny Owen Youngs, Bess Rogers, Gregory and the Hawk and Chris Garneau among others. Please contact me or check The Woes myspace for more info on shows, recordings etc. --------------------------------------------------This page will begin featuring some of my less traditional improvisations and compositions. These are mostly informal recordings and I'll be changing them frequently (or less so). Check back often (or intermittently) and let me know what you think. Collaborations with like-minded improvisers and noise-makers welcome. Enjoy!

I don't want to get the ball rolling

I like the ball just where it is, nice and quiescent.
