I like to use my Soundcloud page for rare odd and end recordings of my work. I have given more than a few one-of-a-kind performances this year, including custom built rafts, storytelling, nude living statues, classical repertoire, and various improvisation configurations.  One of the solo improvised sets that I’m most proud of was captured on audio and I have shared it here. I also started a band that unfortunately didn’t make it beyond a few rehearsals. But people often ask why I don’t have a band and i tell them I try, so here is proof. If you get ideas about being involved in my next attempt, so be it!

Despite the hectic schedule, my European tour was a windfall for songwriting. The process of riffing, sketching lyrics, notating, fleshing out the songs, performing, and recording took place in less than six months with nothing more than a pencil and paper, violin, and 4-track recorder. The little notebook that collected my energy in 13 countries was a source of inspiration as I recorded alone in a Western PA cabin. The recording (now available on Bandcamp) is rough and raw and the songs will be re-done with thicker orchestrations in 2016 but I am pleased with the demo-quality rendering.

Demo cassettes (on high quality tapes) are available in the US, with a 2016 release planned as a split with my long-lost stepbrother Monsieur Marcaille on Third Type Tapes.
