Love's Greeting

Happy Friday everyone!  I woke up early to practice Salut d'Amour by Edward Elgar this morning. 

Somehow despite this being one of the most popular classical pieces, I've never played it before & am just working out the interpretation, fingerings, and bowings now!

I plan on recording this properly and releasing it as a single too.  Do you guys have any ideas/reque...

MOVING DAY!

Hi my friends!

I'm waiting for the movers to arrive and today is the day all of my things are getting moved to my new home in Los Angeles.  I've downsized to a place literally 1/4 the size of the Vegas house, so there has been a lot of donating and giving away of items the past few weeks since getting back from tour as well as lots of logistical pieces/accounts/the usual madness with...
