Hello everyone,

Happy New Year!

I had a great time bringing in the New Year with the Demolition String Band at the Porchlight in NYC, and rocking with them at Skinny Dennis in Williamsburg this past Saturday. This month will bring a a bunch of cool, different things. This coming Friday, I'll be at 54 Below in NYC, mixing it up with Erin Clemons' Mixology

This Month: playing the blues with Billy Hector, The Demolition String Band, Soul Asylum in Orlando, and a cool musical workshop featuring the music of the B-52's. Stay tuned....

A bunch of people have asked, so I am now offering lessons to anyone interested in playing the bass. I've played with a very wide variety of artist, so I'm sure I can help you get to where you want to go. To contact me, go to the contact page of my website, jot down my e-mail address, and write. We'll set something up, and get you on your way!

I am a D'Addario Artist! Through the years, so much has changed in the way of gear, and music styles, but I've always used D'Addario strings, pretty much from the beginning. I've never endorsed any other string, and they're the only string I've ever used, so this is an amazing thing for me. I've always been of a mind to only endorse something that I use. So this is the culmination of many decades of hard work. Rock with Soul Asylum....EXL 170's. Upright on Home For The Holidays...Helicore Hybrids. Tenor guitar with Amy Helm....yes, Phosphor Bronze. Flatwounds with The Demolition String Band...of course, Chromes. All these instruments have been strung with D'Addario strings. I'd like to send a shout out to Reggie and Mike V for making it happen, and giving me the confidence to approach the company that I've always used.

Peace....
