In many ways, seeing Phil & Friends for the first time at Jones Beach in 2006 was an opening into a new world for me. The openness and freedom in the music, the energetic exchange between the band and the audience, the scene in and outside the venue, it was all new and so full of life. Phil’s dedication to that music and continuing to foster community around it marked the beginning of a new era for me that night, as it has for so many countless others. I will forever be grateful for the brief time I had getting to know the wise, soft spoken, kind, and deeply musical man that he was.
Truly an honor to play with Phil and Friends at The Capitol Theatre this Fall. Stoked to get back out there on December 27th and 28th for The Warfield’s 100th Birthday celebration.
