What I'm Working On

Summer 2020

• Staying safe and healthy!
• Staying up late - trying not to worry too much and not succeeding!
• Writing new songs - just about every day I'm capturing new song ideas. I record quick demos and archive these. Some of them I'll come back to and produce; most will stay in the archives!
• Practicing trumpet, piano, and doing some singing.
• Doing some socially-distant performing - my backyard, others' backyards. I even did a solo show on a farm with my loop pedal!
• Procrastinating on my CD!  Before Covid-19 I was so excited to finish it...now it's lingering. Or maybe I'm lingering. That's gonna have to do.
• Working on finishing things I start - see previous point!

I'm doing other stuff too.  Some things (which I think are creative) involve software and learning more about the fundamentals of synthesizers and audio processing.  But to enumerate everything I'm thinking, dreaming, or planning is a bit too exhausting for me at this time.

I'm a bit torn actually - the idea of sharing what I'm listening to, what I'm reading or watching. Maybe I should? Suffice to say I AM reading, watching, listening, and learning lots!  Again, maybe I can do better in this department - time will tell.

I will say this: I'm hopeful for the future and deeply worried about the present. I support the protests. Black Lives Matter. I support science and reason. I will continue to speak out for vote by mail nationally. I love a good joke.

I love many, many things and people.

I'm wishing the best for you during these tough times.  Contact me if anything I've said or written is of interest to you.
