Some highlights of my musical life — songs and fiddle tunes I've written, college bagpipe stories and tracks, and my customized keyboard layout for the melodeon.

These days I feel beyond lucky that my wife Chloe and son Evan are both fine musicians!

Our band Wissahickon Bridge performs “Songs People Like” for all ages — fun, clear, positive — with fiddle, guitar, piano, percussion, and 3-part harmonies. Here are some clips from an outdoor show.

And with Cecelia Tannous-Taylor we play for contra dances as Wissahickon Express, featuring fiddle harmonies, rockin' rhythm, and Beatles songs.

I also organize the monthly By-Ear Open Band (at the Park Ave Contra Dance), which invites all comers to enjoy playing for dancing without printed music. To help people learn the repertoire I made a website where visitors can hear each tune as well as slowing it down and looping it.
