A new album and a release party.

Baritone Saxophone doesn't have to be ugly.

I did the thing. I have a new album.
Its "For Us, The Living II: Marcescence". I can't promise you'll like it, but I am fairly certain it won't sound like what you've heard before.

For Us, The Living is a project to honor tradition through innovation.

For Us, The Living II: Marcescence is the second recording in this series. All of the compositions recorded on this album were written by living composers.

This is a dedication to the musical giants upon whose shoulders I stand. Rather than re-interpret and re-perform long-standing works, I wish to extend the timeline of jazz with new compositions and performances by the best living composers and musicians today.

"A great radio voice" is often a kinder way of saying "your voice is so low I can't understand anything you've said". But on the radio with proper amplification you can make out the words - perhaps not the meaning or reasoning, but the words are clear.

This is a meandering way of saying if you want to listen to the radio show I recorded with Dave Sewelson on his show, "Music for a Free World" on Little Water Radio you can now do so. We yakked, we improvised, and listened to some great recent records that I brought in - Kevin Sun, Derrick Michaels, Dave Ballou, Nick Roseboro, Charles Evans, ScienSonic Laboratories...)

I was so pleased to be asked by fellow baritonist Dave Sewelson to be a guest on his Little Water Radio show. You can stream the whole show, and get a sneak peak of the new album that releases April 1st, 2018.

A better web presence.
A better web presence.

After a busy summer of 2017 spent working on my second album (!) and being a director of the Litchfield Jazz Camp in Connecticut, I am finally getting to some long put-off projects.

I recently rehabilitated the JazzBariSax.com website that I curate. Same great content, much more modern and functional layout. I hope to regularly update that site with content and reviews for baritonists everywhere.

And more obviously I have a new website myself. Even though I worked as a free lance web designer (mostly for musicians) for 10 years my own site was severely out of date. But the kind folks at SquareSpace, who hurried my exit from the web design arena have provided an excellent platform to present myself. 

Please drop me a line, I'd love to hear from you.
