News & Announcements

Happy Birthday, Tom Lehrer!

I didn't realize it had been so long since I'd posted--my apologies! It's all been pretty quiet around here for the last few months.

However, I realized a few weeks ago that the great Tom Lehrer (mathematician, pianist, satirical genius, sometimes credited with inventing the Jell-O shot) was turning 90 years old (yesterday, in fact). 90! So, I decided I really needed to honor his birthday by singing my favorite Tom Lehrer song. (I’m sure Tom would have something wonderfully, bitingly sarcastic to say about my performance, to say nothing of my video editing skills.)

Please enjoy The Masochism Tango!

Skagit Valley Highland Games, July 8

Hi folks! I'm happy to announce that I'll be playing a set at the Skagit Valley Highland Games again this year (at the harp tent). I'll be playing on Saturday, July 8th, from 1:05-1:35pm. Come on out, and let's give those pipers what for!

New Video! "Someday/We Shall Overcome" live at the Couth Buzzard!

Well, I had an absolutely wonderful time playing at the Couth Buzzard Espresso Buono Café last night! We closed the evening out with a performance of Roy Zimmerman's "Someday/We Shall Overcome", complete with a guest appearance by the Evergreen Singers and enthusiastic audience participation. Thanks so much to everyone who came out!

PacNW Folklore Society Coffeehouse Concert, Couth Buzzard, 2/10/17

Hi again folks! I'm happy to say that I'll be performing at the wonderful Couth Buzzard Books (a lovely cafe and bookstore in Greenwood) on February 10th, 2017. I always enjoy playing at the Couth, and not just because the stage is right in front of the sci-fi section. ;) It's a wonderful, warm, informal atmosphere and you can drink coffee and eat treats (or browse books) while you're listening. Thanks very much to the Pacific Northwest Folklore Society for including me in their Coffeehouse Concert series! Here are the details:
