Here are some of the projects I'm currently working on...
"The Nite Cafe" an original "roots" music project with multi-instrumentalist, singer/songwriter Denny Hall and multi-instrumentalist Judy Wayenberg. We're currently in the studio recording the 2nd Nite Cafe album "Hollywood Flats". We'll try to get it out as soon as possible. Check the website for some really great song samples from the first album, and details about the release of the new album, at www.thenitecafe.com. Oh, and while you're there, maybe you might think about buying a copy of the first album while it's still available...you won't be disappointed!
"Blues Passage" a local blues band from the Puget Sound area. I've been sitting in with these guys for a while now. A great group of guys with a passion for making music.
"Bill Leach's untitled solo CD". Bill Leach joined Rebel Storm at the last minute for our 2002 European tour, when our second guitarist couldn't go. Bill was the consumate professional. He learned all our stuff in short order, and simply rocked for us! I'm recording some bass tracks and some vocals for him...it's the very least I can do!
For a more detailed bio, check out my website at www.bigds.net.
I've had the honor and pleasure of having shared stages with some of the very best unrecognized talent and some of the biggest names in the business. Here are a few:
Jerry Miller (Moby Grape), Elvin Bishop, Delbert McClinton, Little Feat, Flatman (Germany), W.I.N.D. (Italy), and more...
Rebel Storm was the recipient of the 2002 GRITZ Southern Music Hall of Fame HORIZON award.

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:

Hi Don...haven't made a comment on your site for awhile. Thought I would stop by and hope I see you in Memphis. Didn't you say you were coming back for the IBC? Cheers, A (Love that "Steel Highway" song)
