Austrian bassist Dr. Gerhard Graml: He is a great bassist and composer. Don't forget to visit the calendar/events page of my site to find dates when Gerhard and I are performing together.

Please visit the web site of my friend and fellow musician Gil Donatelli. Gil is one of the finest musicians and educators here in Maine and we work together quite often with my Septet.

I am also an honorary member of the very funky Motor Booty Affair and have performed many times with them. In 1997, I wrote for and recorded with them at the Studio in Portland. Check out their website for samples from "Feel the Love."

After you visit the Booty, make sure that you say hello to Jim Jose, one of the founding fathers of this group. In Feb of 1999, I recorded Jim’s premier solo release. He’s a fantastic musician and great friend of mine.

For those into the singer/songwriter genre, I would highly recommend visiting Anni Clark and checking her calendar for an upcoming concert near you. Anni is a beautiful songwriter and performer.

One of the most talented musicians I know is Mark Buselli, a trumpet player/writer/arranger from Indiana. Mark is one of the busiest musicians on the scene and is a wonderful arranger.

While working at the Balsams back in 1998, I had the pleasure of meeting Trent Austin, an amazing trumpet player and overall tremendous musician. Since Balsams days, Trent and I have played together regularly. I hope that you will visit his site.

Please visit the site of musician and educator Chris Humphrey. Chris is a remarkable musician and gifted teacher who has a long list of credits. Check out some of the pictures with The Ritz and Clark Terry on his website.
