-I've been playing bass with ekoostik Hookah since it began in 1991. Around that same time, I started playing banjo. The study of bluegrass led me to some of its roots; old-time, country blues, Irish tunes, folk ballads, and classic country music.
--Playing with Hookah has given me the chance to play songs with Arlo Guthrie, Sam Bush, Vassar Clements, Bela Fleck & Jeff Coffin, Dicky Betts, Bob Weir & Ratdog, Airto Moriera, Cyro Baptista, Jonathan Edwards, DJ Logic, Keller Williams, Little Feat, C.J.Chenier, Leftover Salmon, Derek Trucks, Vince Welnick, David Nelson, Merl Saunders, Stanton Moore, Railroad Earth, Moe, Hot Tuna, John Bell, Michael Hurley, and Ken Kesey.
