If you've taken lessons from me in any capacity, you know that I'm all about unleashing the student's potential to learn on their own and to create on their own. I believe and know that every single student has the ability to not only become a great musician, but become a creator on their instrument as well. Tunefox was made with this goal in mind. 

Tomorrow I embark on an 18-day, 16-show tour with Ben Sollee and Kentucky Native. The team has been diligently planning this trip for some time now and I'm proud and pumped to be going on the road with this fantastic band. The music is soulful, creative, folksy, and so much more. It's really a dream project for me to be a part of. 

Last Thursday I got a call to play a polka with Weird Al Yankovic on the HBO comedy show, "Last Week Tonight" that weekend. Short notice calls are very common in New York and it can be risky to take if the music needs a lot of practice. I wasn't incredibly familiar with Weird Al's repertoire but after listening to a few of his recent songs, I decided I'd take the gig and hoped it would be manageable.
