Merv
This piece was written and composed for a show I played in September at Ella St Social Club in Portland. It was reconfigured somewhat for television:

No Condition is Permanent
I finally got recordings of these pieces I composed last fall for string quartet, bass clarinet and (total instrument crush) french horn! Enjoy!

Children's Games
I've been writing music for my friend Seth Nehil's project Children's Games and it's shaping up to be quite unique and spectacular. The scope of the project has grown and the received funding will not adequately compensate all the performers involved. Please consider a contribution of any size to help us realize this ambitious project!

a couple links of interest...
I just did a brief Q&A for RootBlog.
I participated in a radio show about Pandit Pran Nath and the American Kirana Lineage the other night. My teacher Michael Stirling performed a late night raga and invited some of his students who are composers to present pieces and talk a bit about their work and the influence of Pran Nath/Young/Riley etc. The show can be listened to here.
The first Golden Retriever LP "Light Cones" will be available very soon!
And finally I'm playing a solo set on September 1st at Ella St Social Club:
