We're now available for dances and shows. For booking info call 360-376-3153.

This was a delightfully fun performance group which lasted from 2002 until 2005. We played an eclectic mix of jazz, rock, alternative and funk. From left to right are Al Bently on tenor sax, Yours Truly on baritone sax, Mike Miller on percussion, and Madrone Kubovcik on alto sax. Sadly, Madrone has moved to the midwest....

I also take on students, both adult and adolescent, from time to time both in person and/or on line..... contact me for more information. My goal as a music instructor is to teach both music reading skills and also improvisation skills to help fellow musicians along their musical path. Check out www.orcasmusic.com for more information.
Another musical outlet is my accompaniment of the amazing and enlightening Dustin Fox. Check out his web site at www.michaelsbridge.com for more information on him and his insightful art.
And here's some fun.... go to the following Youtube site and see Dustin and the Clusterphobics at the Apple Harvest Party last fall, featuring Al Bentley on tenor sax and yours truly on the baritone.
