On May 15th, 2022 I had the opportunity to deliver my fourth "message and music" for the community at Center for Spiritual Living Nashville. The talk was "Sacred Ecology", accompanied by three original songs and a cover of Gabe Dixon's “All Will Be Well”. If I can play some part in changing hearts and minds by sharing what I've learned through the ongoing process of my own transformation, that will be enough. When the path reveals itself, ya' gotta follow.
In December of 2021, we spent 3 weeks in Belize with dear friends there. Played with friends Ed Taft on bass and Cyril Hannah on percussion at a couple favorite hangouts for locals and tourists. So FUN! Let's see... go to a tropical paradise, spend time with friends, make music, have fun and get paid... yeah, I'll take it!!
Having the opportunity to share both the music and message at my spiritual center continues to be an amazing growth experience for me!! This past Sunday, Feb. 6th was no exception. I also had two of my favorite people and top-notch vocalists, Gregory Fisher and Raven Barrientos, singing with me on several songs, and esp. on "Glory" from the movie "Selma", where I got to work my rap skills a bit on Common's words of wisdom in support of the fight for racial justice and equality.
I look forward to being back…

These past few months have been more than challenging for all of us in a number of ways. And for some, they've been downright impossible. From a devastating series of tornadoes here in Tennessee in early March that took 25 lives and tore a path of destruction through parts of Davidson, Wilson, Smith and Putnam Counties, to a global virus outbreak that has caused so much suffering, loss, and economic despair as schools and businesses were forced to shutter their doors for the safety of all, to…

Listen to a live interview I did TODAY, Tuesday, Jan. 27th, 2020, from 3-4pm with the lovely Drew Laney on "Radio Free Nashville" in Pasquo, TN (103.7 and 107.1 FM). Amazing how quickly an hour goes when you're having fun!! Just having a nice conversation and playing a few songs. There is a symphonic piece that comes in during my last song, which makes for an unusual sonic experience, BUT... it's pretty straightforward up to that point!
It seems odd to still be living in an era in which rallies and marches to show our support for science and urgent pleas for our elected officials, citizens and business leaders to address the need for meaningful action on climate change is the norm. But, nonetheless, here we are. We will meet in Public Square on Sat., May 4th at 10am. Hope to see you there!
