I've invited some incredible vibraphonists to collaborate with me on quick and exciting takes of favorite standards.
Collaborations
These are brief and engaging renditions of favorite standards recorded with musicians I admire!
All I Need: A Radiohead Tribute
Inspired by the renditions by Brad Mehldau, we try our hand at the stylings of Radiohead in a jazz context. The experience is deeply rewarding for both the band and the audience, resulting in an explorative dive into this popular British rock band.
Double vibraphone quartet with Kevin Hart
It’s a rare opportunity to have one jazz vibraphonist in town. Having two is almost unheard of! Audiences in Urbana, Illinois did hear it to great acclaim, with myself and Kevin Hart.
Joey Glassman trio featuring:
My time playing the happy hour every last Friday of the Iron Post had me playing with some of the greatest rising stars in Central Illinois. It was fulfilling to play with all different players with different backgrounds and play styles.
Film Scoring
I had the pleasure of writing and producing the film score to Carrie O’Toole’s documentary. Forfeiting Sanity: What if Love is Not Enough? This project stretched me compositionally and forced me to work on my Logic Pro X skills. It was a fun project, and I’m interested in doing more! Check out the soundtrack at this link, and click the contact page if you’re interested in something like this for your project!
Small-Scale Composition
I have written a number of intro/outro ditties for podcasts. It is fun and a great way to reinforce the brand of your podcast/video/other project! Check out this example of what I’ve done in the past. My turnaround for these projects are quick, so if you need this sort of ditty in no time, I can deliver! Visit the contact page to inquire!
