CONTEMPORARYTUBA.COM

I play tuba and electronics alongside Michelle Lou, bass and electronics, as go by land. We create large-scale, slowly evolving, improvisatory pieces that bring together drone, noise, and jazz idioms. We've performed at wasteLAnd‘s A Winter Wasteland and High Desert Soundings... I played tuba and jug with the G Burns Jug Band, a group exploring the repertoire of early 20th century American recordings to find amazing music. We played regularly around San Diego and Southern California, and twice performed at the National Jug Band Jubilee in Lousville, Kentucky. With G Burns, I taught jug classes at the National Jug Band Jubilee and the Port Townsend Acoustic Blues Workshop... I'm a tubist, jug blower, and museum curator based in San Diego, CA.
