Hey Steve, Thanks for stopping by! Stay in touch. In my updated profile, I have two new songs, a new video blog, you can join a maling list or pre-order the CD 2 for 1! I would love to hear from you.
Hey, thanks so much for the add and the friendship, I truly appreciate it! I’m back in the US to finish my debut album (feat. Take 6, K. Whalum, A. Laboriel, V. Colaiuta, P. Jackson Jr.). I’ll keep you posted :))

Dig the new "Lord I Give You My Heart." I still got to get together with you some time for some music I wrote for an old Easter prayer text. The words include a "resounding trumpet". I think of you every year when I do the song.
Hey man! Been good! Just working. I'd love to play with you sometime! I still think it would be good to work out that Wynton Marsalis/Mark O'Connor version of Honeysuckle Rose. It's good to hear from you though! How have you been?
