He knows how to subdue their frustrations and gives them encouragement when tackling a difficult assignment. My son started at the age of 5 and, now at the age of 10, has shown wondrous progress under Eric’s tutelage. My son joined his school band, and in the 4th grade was placed with the Advanced Ensemble, alongside his 7th and 8th grade school mates due to his advanced knowledge of the instrument. Eric gave my son the confidence to play alongside his peers in a multi-instrument environment." Kathy M-

Hey Eric!

I hope you will join me on Sunday, Dec. 28, @ 7pm at The Towne Crier on Rt. 22 in Pawling, NY. This show is a special, songwriter-in-the-round evening with Susan Kane and Beth Metzler. I'll be playing some new tunes from "Old Flames" as well as a couple of new arrangements of some older JATF classics. In other words, there will be something for everyone.
Tickets are $10 - you can get them in advance at www. townecrier. com.
Please pass the word along! Thanks!
Tim

Hi Eric. Is Animal one of your students?

I hope you'll forgive me doing a bit of shameless merchandising. My new CD is out.
Still doin' the Jazz thing, but this is definitely not your father's organ trio!

The updated site looks great. Very classy with the black and red. How long ago did you become a Silverfox endorser? I've been very interested in doing the same thing, but not sure how to go about it. Tips? Also, heard your parents are moving back to Steeler-ville. Talk to you soon.
