During my musical career, I've been fortunate enough to have played with some great players and record with some very inspiring projects.
BOJI, with Bon Lozaga (Gong/Gongzilla) and Topher Steinhardt fulfilled my prog power trio appetite. THE ZEBRAS & YOW KINGS, with Gary King, and RUDY RUBINI churned out great melodic rock songs that only got heard by our local devout Philly following. PROJECT LO put me in the same room with my heros, Percy Jones (Brand X) and Gerald Veasley (Zawinul Syndicate).
In '02, while playing with JOHNNY BLING, I played bass on the first public performance of "The Remedy" and "Curbside Prophet" by then up and comer, Jason Mraz, who was recording his debut album, Waiting For My Rocket to Come, at John Alagia's local studio. I also performed with Jeff Washington, Mr. Rogers Neighborhood, On The Edge, Rick Forrest, Jordan Page and Joe Martone.
BIG BANG METHOD in '04 revived my desire for the power fusion trio and now, KEYTRONEK, is taking me on a sonic journey that I hope never ends.
It's all about the music, in any form, and I still love making it. Stay tuned for new music and live performances from both projects in the coming year.
