February 2021
slow music news year, perhaps, but there are actually things in the works!
A new record featuring Butterfat Trio as the band for singer-songwriter John Sanger is in the final phase of recording!
In addition, Butterfat is beginning pre-production on a new remote collaboration.
AND, tying all that together, stay tuned for the launch of BAND ON CALL, a remote recording collective gearing up to make your tunes a reality, even in a time where we can’t record together in person.

Summer 2018:
I'm taking a few months this summer to play music and travel, two of my favorite things, at the same time. (Is there a word for this? There should be. ("Work-ation" is the only decent one i can think of.)
I'll be performing with the newly formed "Hudson River band" and exploring europe aboard the disney magic until late august, then, it's back to work in nyc. Keep up with me on instagram, as i'll be sharing on there when i can!
'til then!

(TWO!) Brand new LIVE ALBUMS!
In 2016, I got to play a couple of fantastic shows with Derek Fawcett, Kevin Garcia and Eric Day at NYC's Rockwood Music Hall. Some of the tunes are featured in Derek's recently released album "Sing Along", a live album that also includes tracks from another tour date and another (great) band in Kalamazoo, Michigan - where Derek and I first played together. The album is available at Bandcamp as a download or 10" vinyl (+ free download)
Also out now on Broadway Records is the debut album from Jay Armstrong Johnson. Known for his work on Broadway (On The Town, Hair) and TV (Quantico), Jay put together a 3 night concert at 54 Below with a bunch of friends and killer singers and players. You can find the resulting album on Broadway Records or iTunes.
