J Fraites Album Goes to #1

Jeremiah and Me at Flying Elephants Studio, NYC

I’m thrilled to be a soloist on the #1 Classical Crossover album on the Billboard charts.

Piano Piano 2 by Jeremiah Fraites of The Lumineers, produced by David Baron, is a collection of beautiful pieces. The cello is featured on 2 tracks- ‘Extra Lives’ was done at Flying Elephants Studio NYC, Jeremiah and I playing together in one room- an authentic chamber music experience. ‘Champagne’ was done at David’s magical Sun Mountain Studio in the hills.

Piano Piano 2 is a follow up to Jeremiah’s smash hit Piano Piano, also on Dualtone Records. You can hear him discuss his amazing new album on the NPR website.

May we all have extra lives bathing in beautiful music….

Listen everywhere and enjoy springtime.

A new album I mixed is released

OUT NOW! Proud to be part of this new amazingness….

I’m honored to have mixed and played on this new spoken word album by Eric Archer, with Arjun Bruggeman of the Krishna Das band on percussion

A Wheel of Deeds: An Album of Ecstatic Poetry is out today. Listen and download here

I love this album- Eric’s poetry is deeply spiritual, melodious and inspiring. Arjun and I improvised spontaneous accompaniments to his voice with cello loops, tablas, frame drum and more, live in the studio.

Beautifully engineered in a big converted barn with analog gear, by Joey Weiss in Kingston NY

May you be gripped by spontaneous inspiration in the depths of Nature, or wherever you find yourself inspired.
