The 55Bar | The End of a New York Institution Nov 15, 2022

This episode deals with the loss of one of the worlds great musical institutions, and without doubt my favorite place to play of all time. I was fortunate to play there for almost two decades, encompassing hundreds of gigs and dozens of the worlds greatest jazz musicians.

Come see my NY trio with Nir Felder and Cliff Almond at The Bitter End on November 30th. My first band leader gig in NYC since 2019.

How Much Do You Want To Make On A Gig? Nov 07, 2022

Money is always a hard topic to talk about when it comes to making a request for a fee as a band leader. But so many things go into informing that request that are rarely talked about. This episode deals with the long list of items I recently discussed with my new agent as we plan touring for my trio in 2023.

How Do You Listen To Music In 2022 | Spotify? Apple? Plex? Self-Custody? Sep 05, 2022

The internet has changed the way we make, listen to, and store music as both fans and professional musicians. Today I talk about my latest solution in the plex server, with my windows machine storing my vast music collection on SSD's at home in the studio. We also get into the issue of artists taking some of our favorite music off of the major streaming platforms, and how we might buy that music, own the files, and self-custody them in 2022.

This is the company that built the machine I'm running my music library on: Steiger Dynamics

Let's bring some things into your musical orbit that you perhaps thought weren't on the menu quite yet, by making some minor adjustments to things you already know.

A tiny change (literally one note in a scale) can open up a whole new world of sounds, and I want to use this simple concept to highlight the fact that jazz is not elitist. It's a language.

The Truth About Gear & "Endorsements" | It Is Not What You've Been Told Jul 23, 2022

I'm almost certain 98% of people listening to this episode will have been walking the wrong way down a one-way street on this one for a while. Hopefully I can dispel some myths, give you good information, and help you understand how the world of gear and "endorsements" work, and how to make it work best for you.

How To Create Chords From Nothing | The Kenny Werner Method Jul 21, 2022

Kenny Werner, master pianist and author of Effortless Mastery, has a fantastic concept that I've been using for years to create chord sequences. The hipness is only as successful as your ability to voice lead though, so it's a great way to improve a bunch of skills with just one simple concept. Root motion, chord quality, chord voicings and voice leading.

Risk Tolerance | How Do You Pay For A Tour? Jul 17, 2022

There is often an element of risk involved for the independent artist when it comes to touring. How much of a balance can you strike between door splits and guarantees? Do you have any well paid festivals to build your tour around? And what are you willing to personally risk to make it happen?

It sounds more daunting than it needs to be, and in today's episode we take a look at a ton of things that you can take into consideration when assessing what your risk tolerance is, and also how badly you want to make it happen.

Fear and Loathing in Los Angeles | Stereo Bass Rig Mar 25, 2022

The stereo setup makes its first appearance on the podcast today. Albeit very low-key and definitely not dialed in. I thought it would be good to give you a look through the window of what is happening in the week leading up to the recording of the new album, what I'm working on every day, how the setup sounds, and what needs more work before I get on the plane. There are lots of emotions in play right now, and over the past couple of weeks I have journeyed through fear, joy, loathing, and ultimately overwhelming motivation to do the best I can do. It's always a journey, and sometimes you're lucky enough to have amazing fans along for the ride who remind you why you do what you do. Luckily the fear is in the rear-view mirror, and I'm deep in the creative and highly-motivated portion of the process which is the most exciting part.

Bass Fans Are The Best Fans Mar 16, 2022

The light at the end of the tunnel is getting brighter for sustainability as an artist, and in just the past four days of the pre-sale for my new album, my motivation has risen to levels I haven't had in over a decade. You, the fans, are to thank for that, and it has turned this project into the most exciting I've ever embarked on.

Saying Goodbye to Convention | Risk vs Reward Mar 13, 2022

With streaming music services destroying what little chance of continuing to create art musicians like myself have, I'm saying goodbye to convention, and taking a different path.

I hope you're curious enough to join me on the journey. Whether you're a musician yourself, or a fan interested in more than just the music, this is going to be some kind of ride and I have no idea where it might end up.

Four of my Favorite Solo Breaks Mar 04, 2022

We're taking a look at 4 of my favorite solo breaks of all time featuring Michael Brecker, Lee Morgan, Pat Metheny, and Nat Adderley. It's incredible how much these sounds and phrases have stuck with me throughout my career and informed what I do today, even if I don't write, play, or record in the style of any of these artists. It's all about time and sound informing nuance.

I also give an update on the pre-production progress for the new album, and report on yesterday's pedal test session at the rehearsal studio in Los Angeles.

Music | It's as Much Mental as it is Physical. If Not More... Feb 20, 2022

Detaching From Social Media | How to Quiet the Noise Feb 12, 2022

The podcast is back after a one year hiatus, and it's all thanks to my recent uncoupling from social media. I've quieted the noise, brought my focus to where it needs to spend more time, and as a result have more time to be creative and produce these episodes for you. Aside from explaining a bit of my social media journey, I get into some new music, new pedals, and stereo imaging with my bass rig as I prepare to go to the studio in Spain next month and record my new trio.

How important is gig stamina? Jan 17, 2021

I'm working on ways to stay sharp at home while we don't have the option to be out playing gigs. Stamina will be a key element to the success of gigs once they return, and I have a couple of ideas towards the end of this episode that might help you.

Being Ready For Gigs Again | The Groove Jan 10, 2021

Getting stage-ready for gigs again is going to take some time. But it's something I think we should be thinking about now, even though gigs might be 6-9 months away at least. I'm working with a drum loop and trying to dial in my time, and also working on articulation of solo pieces and making a melody sing.

The Practice Routine: Where do you start? Dec 20, 2020

I was trying to figure out what to play in today's episode, when I realized pressing record and documenting the process of where to start would be far more valuable than a preconceived idea.

The Elasticity of Nuance Dec 17, 2020

It's so important not to let the nuance in your phrasing, your time, your sound, and your note choice get lost with technique. Technique typically overshadows subtlety, and we have to police ourselves on that as we develop our learning process.

Jazz Harmony | Piano for bass players Dec 13, 2020

There's no substitute for limiting your technical ability when it comes to composition. Being a a very average piano player, I can't get lost in licks and technical ability when it comes to writing, and am really forced to stay within the melody, the harmony, and the form of a song.

Bach Violin Sonata No. 3 | Sight Reading Practice Dec 10, 2020

I'm getting into Bach's Violin Sonata No. 3 for my sight reading practice today, as well as taking some oboe technique phrases from Georges Gillet.
