King of the Bees

The first track from my next project, a rock/power pop EP called King of the Bees, premiered today at my favorite music magazine, The Big Takeover. The Invisible World features Nada Surf singer Matthew Caws and all six tracks have Pete Thomas from the Attractions/Imposters on drums, not to mention a bunch of other great musicians. 

The Lost Church w/ Dan Bern

My only gig of 2025 was at the Lost Church in San Francisco with Dan Bern. I’d play more often, and maybe a lot more often, if they could all have packed houses, great sound, intent listeners.
