1.21.10	Looking forward to a brief West Coast tour in late February / early March, followed by a series of East coast gigs with Four Across, leading up to our recording session at the beginning of April! - check calendar page to see if I'm coming to your town... January is keeping me busy with a few teaching gigs, some writing projects, and a recent slew of sessions with some fantastic musicians.
9.21.09	A few fun shows coming up, in NY & Seattle - check the Calendar page for more info...
2.17.09	After a December of solitary confinement composing and a busy few months as a sideman, I'm happy to be launching into some exciting new projects. March will feature a couple premieres of new pieces, including a Cello Sonata written for my friend Ruth Marshall, and a set of pieces for jazz septet, loosely based around Gyorgy Ligeti's "Musica Ricercata", both of which will be performed on my Graduate Composition recital on Monday, March 30th. Also on the horizon is my Graduate Lecture Recital, which will be a look into the compositions of Billy Strayhorn, Thelonious Monk, Kenny Wheeler and Bill Evans. I'm planning a series of performances of this music throughout the northwest - stay tuned! The move to New York is getting closer and closer - current plans are to be there by August, so I'm busy soaking up the Northwest, and enjoying all of the teaching and playing I'm fortunate enough to be a part of here in Oregon. The calendar has just been updated, so take a look, and I hope to see you at some upcoming shows! ~
11.1.08	The Four Across West Coast tour is complete, and I think it's safe to say it was a complete success! Thanks to all who came to the shows in Seattle, Portland and Eugene, and made all the shows so much fun to play. Future tour plans are in early stages of discussion... The coming weeks here in Eugene are busy with a few composition projects, as well as some fun shows around the Eugene area with various groups... check the calendar page. ~

9.22.08	After a jam packed month on the East Coast, I'm back in Eugene, getting set for my last year at the University of Oregon. New York was fantastic - I got to reconnect with a lot of great friends and musicians, saw some fantastic music and ate some phenomenal food. A lot of performances on the horizon in and around Eugene and Seattle... check the Calendar page... ~
