New recording w/ bass, drums, electric guitar

I’m working on a re-recording of “All Our Loves” with acoustic and electric guitar, bass, and drums. I’m still working on it, especially the vocal, but you can hear the work-in-progress here.

Acoustic Rock

For years I played acoustic guitar with a two-hand-tap method (see the Video page). I stopped the two-hand-tapping last year, but I’ve recently rediscovered the joy of singing while playing an acoustic guitar with a flat pick. And, I’m adding bass, drums, and other instruments. I’ve been bringing a few old songs back to life, reworking them for this style, and writing some new ones. I’ll be posting some examples here soon!

Music of all kinds…

I write, record, and perform jazz, pop, rock, and other styles including ambient/electronica. In addition to my own music, I’ve created incidental music for live theater, the soundtrack for an iPhone game, and numerous corporate multimedia presentations. These days I’m playing jazz and pop on electric guitar, and working on a new electronica CD.
