I know it’s been a very long time since I posted anything here! I’ve been so busy up until recently with my music and teaching that it’s been hard to find a moment to sit down and put fingers to the keys. As we all know, it’s been a changing world in the last two years, for better or worse. Many challenges, set-backs, and hurdles to overcome. Despite all the uncertainty and the changing times, one thing is still certain: we still need music. In fact, we need music more now than at any other time in living memory. It’s the one thing that keeps so many of us alive and sane, including me! So, I continue to play my music where I can and write in between this and my teaching. There are some new songs and entire albums on the horizon, I’m pleased to say! So, stay tuned (bad pun!), and, in the meantime, you can still find lots of my music on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Music, and other video and audio music platforms.

Until next time…
