Music Samples

I rarely allow anyone to put a quote about something I've done as I think my music is about the immediacy of what is happening as it's happening, not something someone wrote about what I did at some other point in time. I think we get too hung up on 'names' rather than just listening. I do like the comment below by Ric though, probably because he calls me rowdy!!

“Since I started working with Michelle as my pianist, musical director, and arranger, life has changed for the better. Under her direction, with her musical vision and ear, her ability to play in any and every genre with frightening authenticity and her knack for being smooth, rowdy, elegant, rocky, jazzy (in other words, about 10 pianists rolled into one), my songs are presented with a whole new clarity and power. The point is she's got style and chops. So how did my life change? My voice sounds richer, the arrangements classier and the audience response overwhelmingly resounding. Plus, I don't have to worry about whether my accompanist has my back. Who could ask for anything more!”
