New Album: Six After Ten
September 26th, 2024 was the 10th anniversary of my lesson studio at Boomer Music Company in Fort Collins. To mark the occasion, I recorded this improvisation that week in my lesson room on my usual teaching gear: workhorse instruments, practice amps, and a recording app on my business phone.
The two sessions have been edited slightly for time and there’s some studio reverb added for depth, otherwise it’s an accurate documentation of my typical noodlings while waiting to teach.
Give it a listen on CD or the music service of your choice, and thanks for listening.
