My thanks to @pnotemedia (Phill Hawkins)an amazing drummer, percussionist, instrumentalist who created this really great tune called “Eclipse” I liked it so much that I reached out to him for a drum-less version and he was super kind and sent me a mix to play on. I Played cowbell with my left foot and bass drum with my right.

Slight Accent enters top 50 on JazzWeek! Proud to contribute drumming, mastering and another CD design. I’ve done all of his designs since “There Goes That” Fun stuff!
