I can't believe it is September already with school starting and Christmas around the corner. I am amazed how fast the summer went and the summer gigs - sad to see the schedule open up a little too much but glad to have been working on some cool stuff this year!

In the NEWS column, I have a pretty major piece of big press to mention. This month a new CD I played on is coming out. I can tell this is pretty big news since I have started seeing press releases and reviews from all over the western news media! You wont likely know the band if you are an older person since it is young guy music!
Weezer is a rock band, Rivers Cuomo is a crazy young writer and I played Flute on the new CD, scheduled for release this month - September 19th, 2010. The CD is called Hurley and the song I tracked was Unspoken. I played Flute jam tracks and multi-tracked a few flute pads that hit a vintage plug in to make it sound like an old keyboard track. All very cool and I can't wait to hear the finished product!!

The news has just started coming in as pre-release copies are hitting the press for review. I will be following the fun and let you know as the press comes in! I have hopes that visibility might move web stats up a bit and maybe effect sales for my CDs a bit with a younger audience.

I did a video with Rivers last year and have it here to see. Yes, I am the dude playing Flute in the cowboy hat! Pretty funny stuff....


Jermaine Dupri (JD) the Atlanta based rapper is found singing on the track and the support musicianscome from many of the young guy bands on the label. It was a pretty weird but fun day of tracking! All live to audio and video.

Here is the Clip JD Posted, recorded to and thru the Weezer live video tapping day. Can you say Janet Jackson??
