And just like that, I'm a podcast and live stream host!

Like so many affected by the pandemic, I’d been out of work for about 6 months but just recently, I’ve begun working again for the iconic percussion company, Gon Bops.  Since 1954, this company has been making quality instruments and has some of the world’s greatest artists on their roster.  (They were the congas at Woodstock, so there’s that!) Along with my personal music career, I’ve been their Artist Relations Manager for 10 years now and proud to be associated with such a quality brand, of which I’m also an endorsee.  With things being what they are these days, I’ve proudly just launched a couple of really cool things for Gon Bops…and now find myself as a livestream show host!  I just conducted 2 great live stream hangs with some amazing artists, with whom I have big respect.   The 2 shows included Lenny Castro, Bernie Dresel and Walter Rodriguez in part 1 and Alex Acuna, Brad Dutz and MB Gordy in part 2.  It was such fun doing this!   Check em out on Gon Bops’ YouTube channel.   

And very soon, I’ll be premiering and hosting Gon Bops’ very first Podcast called The Percussion Loft and I’m really looking forward to featuring more one-on-one, in-depth interviews with some really talented players.   Keep any eye out for this too…it will be featured on iTunes podcasts, Spotify and all the other landing sights podcasts are featured, as well as on Gon Bops’ website. 

Thanks ya’ll!!   Click the photo below to a link to one of the livestream shows.
