Collaborating with Pharoahe Monch for Ecstatic Music Festival was a night I'll never forget. I hope we get to do it again! 

Here's a peek at the drum set up:

The PitchBlak Playlist: Bond St. District

It was a pleasure to arrange 8 tunes for Maryland's own Bond St. District for the PitchBlak Playlist series. I had no shame in telling a room of New Yorkers that Maryland is the greatest state in the country!

Looking forward to sharing some videos from this special night. Everyone worked their butts off to deliver an unforgettable night of music!

Just Listen

"Laid down the last band parts for the last two tracks on "Just Listen" today! Can't believe it!! #music #musician #recording #dreams @eusoniastudios"

This EP is going to be one of my favorite recordings I've ever played on. Great work by all! 

On another note, did you know I almost always wear a Phish t-shirt when I'm in the studio?

Pharoahe Monch Rehearsals

On Monday, PitchBlak had our first rehearsal for our upcoming Ecstatic Music Festival concert with Pharoahe Monch. In additional to our usual instrumentation, we are performing with a string quartet and vocalist. This is a concert not to be missed! Grab tickets here. I swear I'm looking at the metronome app and not Twitter in this picture.
