My three part concert on December 21st 2009, entitled Three Concerts For The Winter Solstice, was a great success and a very long day. I performed solo on the Sunrise Highway at dawn, performing duo with Ellen Weller at noon at Ponto Beach, and presented the debut of a new "electro" quintet called rainchaser that night at Desi'N'Friends. Please check the site for more info - winter solstice. And there is a video at your right to check out -
These concerts are dedicated to the memory of Maryanne Amacher.

I've been working on the new Skeleton Key Orchestra for over two years now. We have passed the tracking and editing phase and are now into overdubbing, which is taking forever. And don't think i've been idle - three to five recording sessions a month, plus anywhere from 8 to 20 hours a week editing and mixing have kept me busy. Things are sounding great, i got Rick Helzer to sing, and i'm looking forward to the final product.
I'm also working on a video documentary of the writing, recording and mixing process . . . . more info here. |
I've started a new solo audio/video project concerning autonomous music played by windchimes, kite whistles and aeolian harps. The project is called Lost Balloon Company, there are two websites you can check out - here and here.

My new solo CD (percussion and electronics), entitled Blind Orchid, has been released on Accretions Records. This recording is a follow up to my previous solo recording Born On Tuesday, and continues many of my solo interests in extended sound possibilities, pacing, flow, room acoustics, text and my continued interest in changing grains of fidelity. This recording was recorded entirely @ Termite Studio, was mastered by Steve Langdon and features my own artwork.
