If you’re interested in my music, my writing, my teaching, or my adventures, you’re in the right place. You can find out where I’m playing live. If you want to see some of my past work, you can find live videos here. You can also marvel at the astonishing number and variety of artists with whom I have recorded. (Great fun for record geeks. Needs updating though.) You can read my blog posts on various topics. (For example, here’s the Ten Commandments series of tips for young musicians.) If you are interested in hiring me for live performances, recording (either online or at the facility of your choice), studying with me online, record production, or other musical services, please contact me. If you are a fan, music historian, or journalist, I am happy to talk with you about my past work. Thanks for your interest!

As Dennis Brown and the Van Dykes so beautifully sang, "No Man Is An Island."Bulletins From A Working Musician
09/12/24
- I’m appearing every Thursday night at Sandz in Laurelton, Queens with Derrick Barnett and the Statement Band. We have occasional special (sometimes VERY special) guests during the second set. And of course you never know who might be in the audience.
- I’m doing lots of home studio work these days, as well as teaching online and at Mind-Builders, a wonderful art center in the Bronx. All ages accepted. All lessons are online except at Mind-Builders. I am not offering private in-person lessons at this time. If interested, contact me here.
- My collaboration with the legendary guitarist Duke Robillard and RI reggae institution Soulshot is finally mixed! Looking at an early 2025 release date, as Duke is currently touring behind his latest album on Stony Plain. Check the album out here.
- What to see me live? Check here for all confirmed show dates.
- My collaboration with the marvelous Joanne Williams on a song we wrote together, “Thankful,” has gotten over 15,000 views on YouTube. You can see the video here, and buy/stream the track on all major platforms.
- The dub mixes of the instrumentals I’ve recorded for Piper Street Sound are now available on vinyl! Click the link for more info. My old friend Dwight Pinkney and I have a duet track in the PSP vaults as well. It shows both of us at our best and I’m incredibly proud of it. Not sure about release date.
- The vinyl edition of my 2018 solo album “The Harder They Strum,” is almost completely sold out. Given the state of the vinyl industry, I doubt we will be repressing it. There are a few copies online from various shopping sites. I have lots of CDs available though, $15 including shipping. If interested, contact me here.
