Almost Solo Acoustic Gig

Hi there! Just booked a show at one of my favorite low key venues The Library in Long Beach. I call it solo acoustic since it’s my first gig with my new baby in tow, in vitro. Hopefully I  won’t be too big to hold the guitar by then. Hahaha! Looking forward to it and hope you can come out

The Countdown

So, it’s hard to believe after all this time that the record is finally done and uploaded digitally to 35 different music sites. NO more tweaking, no more remixes, no more nothing. It is what it is. I’ve been holding onto it for  a long time and it’s good to let it go. The idea that you have to let

The Ambassador

I have had a influx of spiritual hip hop into my life recently, thanks to my fiance. This is a new concept, even though I have been accused of only liking “back pack rap”.   This is mostly true.  I am not really into “slappin a ho” kinda rappers.  I really appreciate those who are out there elevating us, not

Sweet Reggae Music

My brother one time said that if he had to pick his favorite artist of all time if would be Johnny Cash. I thought that was so true since Johnny really knew no boundaries and found his way into the hearts of everyone from bikers to farmers. He just had something that had universal appeal. It got me thinking, if

What is it about Tracy?

There is something in the timber and beauty of Tracy Chapman that almost makes me stop breathing.  The weight is hard to ignore.  I think there are artists out there that have a God given talent that now one else can touch. A lot of people can sing, a lot of people think they can sing, but if you come

40% chance

Well, if you are anything like me, I tend to run a lot more on inspiration than disclipline when it comes to the creative process. I have always been a bit lazy like that.  My guitar has acted a lot like a best friend I run to sobbing because of heart break, confusion, disillusioment, or in joy and moments of
