A little cabin time does the soul good! Ukulele by the fire in Julian, CA

A little cabin time does the soul good! Ukulele by the fire in Julian, CA

Hello friends!

My wife, Yumi, and I found a nice cabin on airbnb in Julian, CA. Our three days and two nights there were delightful – a nice mix of work and (mostly) play. We did have one particularly intense brainstorming / planning session that led me to realize that I haven’t posted here on the blog section of my website in a while! I just wanted to stop by and say hi. Oh and yes, we did have some pie! It was delicious, but I must say, Encinitas’ very own Betty’s Pie Whole is right up there with them, in my opinion!

I’ve been very busy, so I didn’t have a chance to mention that I’ve participated in FAWM (February Album Writing Month) again this year – and I made it to 14 songs…despite having only two songs done half way through the month. My SoundCloud page is well past due for an overhaul, but feel free to check it out, anyway!

Otherwise, mostly everything is the same…and continuing to grow. Don’t forget, if you or your friends or colleagues need help with custom music and/or podcast editing, I’m your guy. A custom-tailored, personal song makes for a great, unique gift – just in case you or someone you know is looking for a special gift or a business / podcast jingle.

Before I go, I’m excited to announce that Yumi is learning the ukulele…and she’s learning fast! We had some great uke time together in Julian in front of that fireplace. Let me know if you’re heading to Julian and need a place to stay – I’d love to refer you to the cabin we spent a few days at.

Ok friends – I could keep rambling forever but I think it’s time to go get a green beer from Mr. Peabody’s here in Encinitas. ‘Tis a Saint Patrick’s Day tradition, after all.

 

Be well!

Happy Spring!

Hey friends!

Long time no chat. As you know, I’m not great at updating you here. In these past few months, I’ve been taking on more and more gigs – mostly at elderly care places. I’ve also been taking on more guitar students, more audio projects and more podcast editing clients. My wife and my pet sitting business Encinitas Pet Sitting has also been growing more and more each month. This has left me with less time to stop by the blog here and say hi.

My Facebook was also hacked and disappeared which demotivated me to partake in all forms of social media for a while…I’ll be back. In the meantime you can find me on Instagram and of course can always contact me here!

I’ve been so honored and blessed to have these new gigs and projects. I really enjoy playing at the old folks homes. I have my own Great Grandmother Mabel to thank for watching me play guitar and dance around like a fool over 10 years ago. I also have Elvis and Yerba Mate to thank for the inspiration and energy.

On another note, I’ve moved my music studio to another location which have give me more space to create and record. It has also given us much more space in our tiny guest home that we rent here in beautiful Encinitas.

I’ve already been picking up a few private party gigs as the weather is warming up and I’m looking forward to meeting more folks by playing at birthday parties, weddings, anniversaries, baby showers,  etc.

I’ve also been trying to learn to surf…I just keep reminding myself how hard guitar was when I was first learning and that gives me a little hope…but it’s not looking good for me so far on the waves 😉

Anywho, back to work! Hope to hear from you soon, friends. Drop a line any time!

 

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy the sunshine,
