What a great night for music at The Hutton in Jersey City. It had been a minute since my last solo acoustic gig. Really enjoyed this one. Twenty-eight songs on the setlist!

Until You Let Me In & H.E.R. Cover
For a recent Virtual Wine and Song, I recorded two new videos. First is an original, “Until You Let Me In.” Second is a cover of a H.E.R. song, “Hard Place.” Enjoy!
Wish You Were Here
I recently recorded this cover of Pink Floyd’s classic as part of a virtual Art, Music, and Poetry celebration hosted at my job. Hope you enjoy it!

Songwriter Challenge
I recently participated in a songwriter challenge for The Latest Noise Wine and Song where I composed an original song to a spoken word poem. I was sent the poem only – I wasn’t told who wrote it and didn’t have access to the poet’s reading. Two other songwriters were sent the same poem. The result? Three very different song interpretations! The poem is “Disbeliever” by Sandra Ann. Check out my version in the video below.
If you want to see the complete segment with all three song interpretations plus the poet’s reading, check out the full Wine and Song video below. In case the link doesn’t start in the correct spot, go to 14:20 to see the beginning of the challenge.
New Exclusive Track
I’m excited to announce I have a new song available – “Think It Through.” It’s a reflection on all of the politics that has erupted around the COVID-19 pandemic and a reminder that we should look out for each other and try our best to keep each other safe. I recorded it at home and played all the instruments on the track.
It’s available exclusively by donating to the Spondylitis Association of America. Earlier this month, I participated in the virtual Banding Together Webathon benefit organized by Lazlo of blowupradio.com. He hosts the benefit each year as it’s a cause near and dear to his heart – his wife suffers from Ankylosing Spondylitis. Donations are used to fund research as well as programs and services for the community.
To receive your compilation of 65 exclusive songs from the NY/NJ music community, including my song, you can donate here – https://spondylitis.org/webathon
Thank you for donating and I hope you enjoy the compilation!
Three Little Birds
Here’s a cover I recorded this summer of Bob Marley’s, “Three Little Birds,” with a little help from my son. Hope you enjoy it! š
Howlin’ and End of the Innocence
I’m just catching up with some posts that should’ve been up months ago! But never too late. Here are two songs from a virtual Wine and Song event back in June. One is an original – “Howlin’.” The other, a cover of Don Henley’s “End of the Innocence.” Hope you enjoy!
