A peek at a project…how you can help
July 27, 2013
You are invited to be a part of an amazing project! I’m working with Clara, the Sidewalk Cellist, on an exciting new record. Now that the weather is sunny and activities are in full swing, the project is gaining momentum.
On August 4th I will be performing with Clara at Vancouver Pride. This is your chance to hear and see what we are up to. Stay tuned for the details!
I’ve spent some time checking out various ride cymbals at some of the well known music shops in Vancouver, but I have yet to find a cymbal that meets my expectations. Recently, I stumbled upon Heartbeat Percussion in nearby Surrey, BC. I hope to make the trip out soon. My hope is that one of these handmade Turkish cymbals will be a good fit.
The first step in becoming a contributing member to the project is to visit my Patron 21 page. Check out how to sign up. You can begin a monthly subscription for as little at $2. Check out the reward section for the details!
I hope to hear from you soon!
Happy Canada Day and 4th of July

Wishing everyone a happy Canada long weekend and a happy 4th of July! There are several awesome things happening this week. On Sunday I’ll be joining John Howard and friends at Burgoo in North Vancouver for a couple sets at dinner time. On Thursday – Happy July 4th–prepare to be dazzled with the music of Tubes and Grooves at Falconetti’s East Side Grill. Later this week there are some sessions for an upcoming project. On July 7th Ethos is going on a road trip to the Island to hang with our pals at Open Space. For more info about the project at Open Space check the following link:

Stepping out into the unknown
June 25, 2013
It’s a little bit crazy, but I’ve taken the leap of faith as a freelance musician. Since taking the leap I have had several wonderful opportunities presented to me. It’s crazy how the world works, but I’m not going to argue. Be on the look out, check back often, and keep your eyes peeled. There will be more news and some new ideas coming up soon. For now check out a few of the new events on the calendar page and give the listen page a try. There will be a special twitter shout out to the first person to tell their favourite tune on the listen page. And as always send some good vibes my way and I’ll be sure to send them back.
