Hey music lovers!

So honored to get the call from the Baltimore Symphony to play 3 performances of John Adams' epic electric violin concerto The Dharma at Big Sur this Jan 6-8. I was asked to sub for the amazing Chloë Hanslip who is unable to get the US from England due to pandemic related visa delays. Always a joy to play this amazing work which has become such a big a part of my life, and thrilled to be working with the acclaimed Baltimore Symphony for the first time, Ryan Bancroft conducting.

My guest on the For the Greater Groove Podcast this week is Jared Judge, host of The Gigging Musician Podcast and author of Gigging Secrets: The Underground Playbook to Making a Living Performing. We talk about getting gigs, playing gigs, and living the freelance life. Then we see how Mr. Gig does in a game of Not My Gig.
