FRANK GUTCH'S INTRODUCTION TO SERE
"AS I EXCHANGED MESSAGES WITH FRANK HE TOLD ME THAT SERE WAS AN UNDERGROUND CLASSIC."
THE MORE I THINK ABOUT IT THE MORE IMPORTANT IT IS TO PROMINENTLY MENTION THE FOLKS I COLLABORATE WITH WHO INHABIT MY RECORDED MATERIAL THESE DAYS.
PAUL CURRERI AND DEVON SPROULE BOTH CHANGED MY LIFE AS A MUSICIAN STARTING IN LATE 2016 AFTER I MOVED TO CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA.
THEY'RE BOTH SIGNIFICANTLY YOUNGER THAN ME AND IN THEIR GENTLE WAYS BROUGHT ME AND MY MUSIC INTO AN ENTIRELY NEW PLACE. THEY'VE ADDED THEIR CONSIDERABLE TALENTS TO THREE OF MY RECORDING PROJECTS.
also included, brian wooten, john spittle, luis espaillat, BRENT MCCOLLOUGH, and tom hampton in nashville, marvin taylor in florida, MARE CARMODY IN ASHEVILLE, joe carvell in london.
in the past, pat lawrence, billy worley, and robbie wells were there for me as well.
all added their considerable talents and insights and whenever i think of them the only word that comes to mind is "awe".
I'LL ALWAYS MAINTAIN THAT I'M STANDING ON THE SHOULDERS OF GIANTS...
