about
Recorded live in Santa Fe at the internationally-acclaimed kombucha brewery, which in easier times had a family-friendly tasting room and was one of my favorite places to perform in the city. These are clips from a show on 28 April 2023 at which I played in round robin format with Desert Mind (Antonio Dixon and Don Redondo) and Toni Dear, two of my favorite local acts. I was freshly unemployed and coming off of a very intense visit with my father for his seventy-first birthday and no small amount of weirdness was in the air.
If you've been following me for a while, you've heard these songs a million times...but here they are regardless — in part because:
1) I love these takes played with my beloved Taylor 324ce Builder's Edition, a guitar that fell into my lap thanks to the graces of COVID bailout money even though and perhaps because I cannot use my Ebow on it like I ordinarily do, so it forces me to play it like it's "just a guitar," and
2) Because I want to give a shout-out to Ayla Bistrom-Williams, the award-winning founder and owner of Honeymoon Brewery, who has demonstrated more grace and grit than almost any business owner I can think of.
I'm also especially pleased with the extended looping coda to "Autocatalysis," an etude that ordinarily clocks out at under two minutes but which in a fit of dreamy wandering self-organized into a wonderfully weird, new exploration...
Thank you for listening, and enjoy!
Special thanks to Kevin Arthur Wohlmut, who shows up EVERY TIME.
