From Wikipedia:

Prophecies of War is the cinema-concert that explores the realities of war through live music, projected video, and audio clips. Centered on Dwight D. Eisenhower's Military Industrial Complex speech given in 1961, Prophecies of War explores America's political use of war, economics, and media to influence foreign policy and its military past. Musically, Prophecies of War has been described by Shockwave Magazine at times similar to Deep Purple^[1]

UArts Jazz Singers: "My Romance"

Back in 2005, I was presented with a unique opportunity to sing Bass II for the UArts 10-peice vocal jazz ensemble. It was an education in harmony to say the least, and a fun challenge throughout. Here's a great studio recording of the group at its best.

The March Hare - People Dressed as People [EP]

The first recording from The March Hare, completely self-produced in every way. At the time, the Philly spazz-rock madpeople was a four-member band: Zack Guy-Frank on guitars and vocals, Jon Hafer on keys, guitar and vocals, Chrissy Tashjian on bass and vocals, and myself hitting things with sticks. Featuring 5 songs that would later be re-done on Mister Nimbus , this EP is a great introduction to the unique and fervent energy that TMH brings. 

Check out the review from AbsolutePunk here. Thinking about posting the rest of the EP and/or the 3-song demo we did back in '04, btw...

Essentially Ellington 2004 - State High Jazz Band 1

State College Area High School Jazz Band at the 2003 Jazz a Vienne festival in Vienne, France.

I have to give it up: my high school music program was incredible. No small thanks go to the legendary educators that steered the ship; the band, the experiences and the music have left an indelible mark on my musical life.

With the State High Jazz Band, I got to travel the world, play some great music, and learn with some of the best musicians around. I also had some of my first professional recording experiences with this group, and this is one of them.

Recorded on a snowy February day in State College, PA, this was our entrance application to the 2004 Essentially Ellington competition at New York's Lincoln Center. The arrangements are direct transcriptions of original Ellington recordings from the 1940s, and you can listen to a sample below.
