Hi everyone! Lots of exciting stuff happening. Polyrhythmics just returned from 4-day west coast tour that culminated in a show at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco, CA. The Hall has been the site of many amazing concerts over the years, and is a beautiful room to play in. I felt very lucky […]

Greetings From The Road!
The Polyrhythmics are currently on our way out of Louisiana, heading toward Colorado. The Mardi Gras celebration in New Orleans was more colorful and vibrant than I could have imagined, and although the multiple parades and costume balls range from neighbor and family friendly to parties that were for older folks, the one thing that […]
Tour Blog 5
When I left off, we were heading to Texas, a state I had never visited before, pretty exciting! It was an early departure from Santa Fe, and it was going to be a long day of driving, but luckily there was no gig we had to get to, just a hotel room waiting at the […]
Tour Post #2
Writing this in the backyard of Scott’s friend Josh, a saxophonist in New Orleans who is nice enough to put us up for the week. There is a warm breeze and it is a sticky but beautiful 80 degrees, although it is kicking up a bit and there are some storm warnings. Some carryovers from […]
Upcoming Tour Blog
It’s less than a week now from when I will be on the longest tour I’ve ever done, three and a half weeks to New Orleans with the Polyrhythmics, and I haven’t done a tour blog since the first tour of my career, when Hardcoretet went down the coast to Los Angeles 5 years ago! […]
April Excitement
I had a nice excursion North to Bellingham the last couple of days; Theoretics had a solid first Bellingham show at the Wild Buffalo, and I was able to spend the following day with Karl, drummer for the band Polecat, who the Polyrhythmics have shared bills and festivals with pretty frequently. It was good to […]
Summer Recap
Another eventful summer is coming to a close; in many ways this one was an extension of the tours, trips, and festivals that I really began to experience last year, and yet at the same time I could feel my “adult” life begin in Seattle. I’ve become (slightly) more organized with my teaching schedule, […]
Road Post
Posting from my phone for the first time, while riding in the van with the Polyrhythmics in Idaho! I plan on putting up an album with some of the more beautiful views when I get back home. This is the longest amount of time that I have been on the road, traveling and playing music, […]
Pick it up, pick it up, pick it up
It’s been a really fun run of performances the last couple of weeks. Polyrhythmics had a memorable mountain show at the top of Heavenly Ski Resort in Lake Tahoe, Hardcoretet played the Comet Tavern for the first time with two great bands in Industrial Revelation and Skerik and really got to rock out, and […]
Festival Mode
The hot weather took its time, but it is finally here, and my schedule has been pretty effective as far as getting me out there to enjoy it! Festival performances with the Polyrhythmics and Theoretics have been really fun, especially because I hadn’t really gone to many music festivals before, either as an audience member […]
