Hey, y'all We all have nothing but time, and yet, at least for me, the days are going by very very fast. Today, I recorded & uploaded 3 solo original song videos to YouTube. I also posted them on Facebook. The 3 original songs are My Dear Lord, Get Coronavirus On The Run, and Brother From Another Mother. The song about the virus was written 2 or 3 days ago. My Ross 'n' Rose partner Heidi "Heidi Ho" Rosenbaum and my sometime booking agent Steve Fugett inspired me to write something hopef ...Continue Reading

I promised to put some videos on your plate and I finally got it together. These are all videos that were shot since I moved to Florida in July of 2017. You may have seen them before, then again maybe not. There's some good stuff here. Check them out, and let me know what you think by either replying to this email or posting a comment on the video YouTube page. I also finished revamping the lyric to a song I wrote in 2011 called The End Of The World. Not to be confused with songs by Skeeter Davis and R.E.M ...Continue Reading

Hey, I've been very disorganized being cooped up all the time. I haven't quite adapted to this "new normal". I've been watching too much news, and reading a lot about the viruss, the immune system, natural approaches to optimizing health, and reaching out to family and friends a bit too. I'm going to get myself in gear tomorrow and Friday, and finally post some music. I may post new solo video too. I have been practicing some originals that you may not have heard before. One of those ...Continue Reading

Well, I've been dealing with all the same changes everybody else on Earth is dealing with. Keeping a safe social distance while shopping, shopping online, making a homemade mask, warding off cabin fever, warding off being a hypochondriac, and watching the news on TV. And tearing myself away from the news on TV or the internet long enough to practice. The news is like that Clint Eastwood film, The Good, The Bad & The Ugly. but it is mostly ugly. Grim. But "this too shall pass". It's also ...Continue Reading

These are strange and dark times, no doubt about it, but we can get through this if we all work together, work hard, and work smart. We might have to think out of the box too. Trying to stay sane and upbeat is a challenge now. Staying virus free is the biggest challenge of course, what with the spreading virus, and rapidly dwindling supplies for medical staffs at hospitals around the country. I believe that this pandemic, as God awful as it is, as unprecedented as it is in our lifetimes, may also of ...Continue Reading

My solo gig at Vinos On Gault Mile in Fort Lauderdale is cancelled for obvious reasons. I've gotten a few other cancellations already. And so it starts. We're all in this together. Now's the time when our federal government is supposed to help people, that's what government is for, and now more than ever. The ideas of Franklin D. Roosevelt and Lyndon Johnson in the past, and Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and Andrew Yang now should be resonating deeply with people. We NEED to take care of each other in order to ...Continue Reading
