I have the distinct honor of opening for Mr. Diego Garcia this coming Friday night at The Linda Norris Auditorium in Albany.  The Linda is WAMC’s live performance space, and is an old bank building.   A very cool venue indeed…

Garcia has had a couple of songs bouncing around the radio waves these days, he’s well worth checking out  http://diegogarcia.posterous.com/

This concert is brought to our region by the good folks at WEXT, 97.7 FM.  There’s a great bunch of people over there who have an obvious love for music, and I’m grateful to them not only for the chance to open this show, but to the relentless support they show the local music scene in general.  Check them out online at http://www.exit977.org

Show starts at 8:00, see you there!

Is where to go to find some demos…

M.R. Poulopoulos and I will be performing as Palatypus on January 19th as part of a benefit for Meals on Wheels to replace their stolen van.  Resources are limited for programs like Meals on Wheels, so they can’t afford unexpected setbacks, especially ones so selfish in their nature…

We’ll be joining a cast of local musicians including Charmboy, Henry’s Rifle, Skunk Hostage and the Bomb Inspectors, Slaughterhouse Chorus, Harry Strole, Don Ferber, and Marc Clayton.

Benefit will be held on January 19th at the Barrel Saloon located at 942 Broadway in downtown Albany.  Show starts at 7:00 and we hope to see lots of you there!

Hey all, stay tuned while I figure out this little site, I’ll be playing around with formats and whatnot for a while, but please check back to find out about what’s happening musically!
