My main project is touring and recording
the Zen Blues Quartet,
featuring: Steve Ferrone, (Drummer with Tom petty, Eric Clapton, Average White band, etc...),
Mike Finnigan, (B3 Organ
with everyone from Jimi Hendrix to Taj Mahal to Joe Cocker, etc...), Tim
Scott, ( Bass and Vocals, Tower of Power, Jack Mack, Stevie Wonder,
Robben Ford, etc..), and myself on guitars and Producing and mixing. Our CD's are available online here.
During 2007, I played and recorded in numerous
Bands and recording projects in LA, Vegas, NY, Japan, and France. I spent the summer in Nice France playing with Jazz singer Marjorie. I was playing every month at The Orleans in Las Vegas
with Blues singer Brad Cordle, and Tim Scott singing and playing Bass.
This year I also had the great honor to play with one of the great Keyboard players on the planet, and all around excellent human being, Mitch Foreman. (An upcoming CD project includes Mitch, Joel Taylor on Drums and Brian Bromberg on Acoustic Bass.)
I also played in Steve Ferrone's Drumroll band, with some of the best musicians
in Los Angeles. (Players include: Jeff Young, Alex Lighterwood, the aforementioned Mitch Forman,
Bill Churchville, Jason Webber, Tom Saviano, Gia Ciambotti, and Miles
Joseph.) I also toured in
Japan with Valerie Carter and Mike Visceglia at the Blue Note in Tokyo and Osaka.
I have also just begun playing in an amazing Duo
with LA Vocal and Keyboards session wizard Jeff Paris, (Keb Mo, Ringo Starr, Dave Stewart). A really unique
blend of Blues and jazz with a modern approach.
Currently, I have established Sectionforhire.com™,
in association with Westlake Audio.
A web based resource for Singer/Songwriters needing good musicians
to record and tour with, as well as a library of music being created
by a dedicated community of top Los Angeles session musicians! I have
also been asked to teach at The Musicians Institute, here in Los Angeles,
in the capacity of student mentor. I consider this an honor and am
looking forward to working with the students.
I have also been performing with The
Circuitbreakers™, an LA based All Star Blues and R&B
project, with some of the best musicians in the world. The band is:
Steve Ferrone on Drums, Tim Scott on Bass and Vocals, Tom Saviano
on Sax and Steve Madaio on Trumpet, Gia Ciambotti on Vocals, and myself
on Guitar and a wonderful young Keyboard player Milen Kirov. The Circuitbreakers™
played at the Superbowl in San Diego, and Headlined twice at the Hard
Rock Hotel In Bali.
