Members of ok|ok have performed and/or recorded with Reggie Workman, Art Lande, Jay Clayton, Lonnie Plaxico, Steve Coleman, Ron Miles, Mark Nodwell among others.

Hey guys, Looking forward to playing with all of you in the various contexts I see you, and hopefully on a more regular basis. Hoping to make it to your gig next week as well, gig permitting! See you on Sunday, Kyoko; and I haven't forgotten, I still owe you a dialogue on the aesthetics of electronic manipulation and the artist's relationship to the types of choices that can be made. ok, yes, I am one of those philosophical nerds that gets lost in questions of aesthetics and artistic will.
Kyoko! thanks for your note and your music up here - inspiring the things you're doing vocally and musically. see you soon! still looking forward to meeting the little one...
