Interests

  • Music

    I thank my parents Jeanne and Lee for always having great music in the house when I was a kid (Louis Armstrong, Keely Smith, Leon Bibb, etc). And more recently the beautiful Lena (my wife) and the inspirational Olivia (our daughter), for their support and encouragement as we travel together through the sights and sounds the world has to offer. I admire the curiosity of composer John Cage. The touch of master drummer Jim Keltner. The understanding of producer Hal Willner. The vitality of The Beatles. The drive of James Brown. The emotional depth of Joni Mitchell. The storytelling of Lou Reed. The sonic beauty of vibraphonist Gary Burton. The work ethic of U2. The natural force of Elvis Costello. The generosity of T Bone Burnett. My colleagues and collaborators around the world. And so much more...Thank you.
