3 nurses and my wife asked if I wanted help with a shower. It quickly became apparent that they actually do think that I ...smell bad? That's not how that dream was supposed to go 🙁 Upside is that the surgery was successful and complications are being addressed

2024 was very...interesting (?) and 2025 is guaranteed to start off the same way. That said, I have big plans for the New Year and I can't wait to share all the new adventures with you. Here's wishing a happy, productive and artistic 2025 to everyone! #composerlife #jazz #focaldystonia #filmmusic

I have been collaborating with musicians in 10 countries for decades. If you think you'd like to have me play on something you are working on, please reach out. If I get a mp3 and hear something I can do, I typically return track in 48 hours. Jazz, blues, rock, r&b, funk & more. #MusicianSky

The most important thing in writing is to finish. A finished thing can be fixed. A finished thing can be published. A finished thing can be made into a movie. An unfinished thing is just a dream. And dreams fade if you don't hold on tight enough. So finish the thing.

A bit of an introduction (since I'm actually spending time over here now). I'm a media composer (I do sometimes get the occasional commission, though). I had a long career playing French Horn, mostly in jazz and improvised music #jazz #filmmusic #frenchhorn #film #composer #jazzhorn #indiefilm
