New album
Hey Folks!!
I'm very excited to announce that I will finally be releasing a New Record!! in 2023. It's already well underway and I have had the extraordinary pleasure of producing this record with the talented and visionary Ken Rich at Grand Street Studio in Brooklyn. He is instrumental in helping me bring to life a culmination of songs that began as far back as 2017.
The amazing musicians that have honored me with their contributions have worked with luminaries such as the late Dizzy Gillespie, and Prince. Also Bonnie Raitt, Norah Jones, Steve Miller, Stevie Nicks, John Mayer, Ledesi, and many more. These incredibly gifted musicians have been so gracious and giving of their time and energy to this project, especially given the very nominal budget I've had to date.
Art in all forms can be fun, exciting, thought provoking, and inspirational. But, what many don't know is how difficult it is to produce at the highest level of professional quality. And how nearly impossible it is to recoup expenses in this modern era of streaming. So, Plain and simple, I'm asking for help from my community to finish this project.
Ok Moses...Fine, I guess
"But...How Can I Help!?" you ask?...
well...There is No Nation, Like Donation...Ladies and Gentlemen
Honestly, think of it more as a pre-order at what ever rate you decide you can afford. I have set up a crowdfunding page on my website that will work securely through PayPal. All contributions will go directly to this project with no middleman. Sites like "Kickstarter" and "Gofundme" take a large percentage for their own profit. We don't need that.
By helping fund this project, and supporting something you believe in, you will be a major part of the process, instrumental to our success.
All contributions will go towards finishing production of this record, including additional guest artists, editing, mixing, mastering (audio finishing), Art work, printing/packaging, social media (publicity videos). and future content development.
All music will be made available on all streaming platforms and physical copies will also be distributed at the price point laid out on the breakdown page.
I want to personally extend thanks to all of my friends and fans that have supported me through my endeavors and I'd like to thank you in advance for your continued support. I pledge to bring you the most honest representation of myself through this collection of works, and I hope that you enjoy listening to it as much as I've enjoyed creating it.
I would also like to extend my gratitude to Al Falaschi for believing in this project and spending countless hours working on many of these songs. also special thanks to Derek Nievergelt and Leo Sidran.
Music is life, love, and happiness
