I had a terrific time at the Tadasana festival in Santa Monica, April 19 thru 22. I got to perform with C.C. White, Donna DeLory, Steve Ross, and Steve Gold. Here is a cool pic of Steve Gold & The Stoned On Shiva Band. 

I finished shooting lesson #4 for the On The Path iPad app. Should be coming out soon. Then I will start editing the lesson I shot with Leland Sklar & Russell Kunkel.

My song "3:35 Coming Through", (which plays when you open this website) just won Best Americana/Roots song at the HOLLYWOOD MUSIC IN MEDIA AWARDS. Very cool, I was totally caught off guard, next time I'll prepare a little something to say!! A BIG part of what makes this song sound so good is the insanely great band on the track: drums, Steve Ferrone / bass, Leland Sklar / keys, Benmont Tench, Peter Adams / percussion, Debra Dobkin / guitars, Robben Ford, Buzzy Feiten /  backing vocals, Gia Ciambotti /…

I just returned from Joshua Tree where I performed at the Bhaktifest festival with STEVE ROSS. A terrific event, close to 4,000 people. This week is an exciting NTMC at Genghis Cohen with the great TOM FREUND, GIA CIAMBOTTI, and a spectacular. house band.

What a wonderful night we had. Here's the "new" crew! (For more info on this great film www.wreckingcrewfilm.com )
