2020 presented a unique opportunity to explore an album of “less than live” solo performances and thematic compositions. The “Standards” on this album have been long-time repertoire pieces that hold some closeness to me. These recordings speak to an attempt to use my voice to balance the "live" approach essential to improvised music with having to perform in isolation. The album also explores thematic composition with original pieces influenced by film and dramatic music.

It is my most sincere hope that “SomekindaStory” takes you somewhere...
