Chris Polk 

12/9/13: With deep sorrow I have learned of the sudden passing of my friend and fellow musician Chris Polk, whom I worked with for over 12 years.  I started working with Chris in the early days of his solo project - The Chris Polk Band - and saw many outstanding musicians share the stage with us in those years.  I was very fortunate to have the musical learning experience but most importantly, to acquire the cherished friendship of this great guy and outstanding talent.  He will be missed for a long, long time.

 

Wildman CD almost complete 

11/23/13: The final touches are now being put to the 11 song Wildman CD that has been in the works for sometime now.  Jay Feldman and Geoff Holdridge have been doing a wonderful job of mixing.  Just one or two more mixing sessions, and the album is ready for mastering. This collection of songs really captures what Wildman is all about, with wonderful performances and great, smokin’ fun songs.  Look for the announcement about the availability of the CD right after the first of 2014.

 

Full Mesh back @ Carpool Herndon
