    Hey Carlos! Great to hear from you. Glad things there are good. We had about 20" of snow over the weekend - lots of gigs cancelled.

    I've been blessed to live here - the talent pool is huge, and NY is only 3-4 hours away. I've got some original projects, been doing some recording, and work fairly consistently, generally doing jazz or related gigs. There are some videos up on my page here. I'll check yours out in a minute.

    All the best,

    NSC
