Well here we go!!!! December is about to start and the Christmas music is coming out of the horn to celebrate the greatest time of year. I always enjoy doing concerts and playing my horns, but this time of the year is a lot of fun. Check out our schedule and see if we are close to you and come out and celebrate Christ’s birth with us in a Big Band Swing Christmas Concert. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone!!!!  ...

2 Corinthians 4:16-18 “Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us am eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” I could have woke up this morning and been in a bad mood that I am not on the road...

I just finished a two and a half week tour that started in Pennsylvania and went to Kentucky, Oklahoma, Colorado, Ohio and Kansas. I made some new friends and got to see some old ones. I put a lot of miles on the truck and played A LOT of music. I played shows in churches, theatres, schools and a prison. I received a Emu egg as a gift and had a afternoon off that I got to hike around the “Garden of the gods” in Colorado Springs. My family...

Ready…Set….Go!!! Wow, where did the summer go. The kids are back in school and enjoying it and Kelli and I are back in high gear with a busy fall schedule. I am excited about seeing some familiar faces coming up but am also excited about several new doors opening this fall. We have changed several things in our concerts and are looking forward to playing the new music and using the new videos. I love how God reminds us all sometimes that He is...

This time of year has to be one of my least favorite times of year. Some parents look forward to their kids going back to school, but we like to do so much together as a family, that I find myself becoming almost jealous of school when the kids have to go back. We have had a good but busy summer. The whole summer was either us being on the road or being home with house guests or the kids friends. We now have two more weeks until school begins...

We are very excited to see how God continues to open doors and use this ministry on a daily basis. We have seen over 380 people change their lives this year by accepting Christ as their Savior. Anytime someone receives Christ is awesome, but I really do enjoy seeing the young kids come forward or see them praying with Pastors or counselors after our concerts. That’s what this ministry is all about. God uses a little piece of brass to change...

Ok, I am not one to complain about much at all, but…………I have two issues with summer concerts. First, as I said in the last update, I am not a huge fan of sweating like crazy during a concert. I just had a mini concert at a camp a few days ago, and barely made it through my first song before I was soaked in sweat. I end up sweating so much, that my lips begin to leak air and my mouthpiece slides all over my face. It’s not much fun. My other...

My last update I did, I was saying how much I enjoyed the spring with the flowers peeking through the ground and the warmer weather starting to come. Well…..it is now the beginning of May and it is still cool, the flowers are not where I thought they would be by now and this coming weekend is my first outdoor show for the year and the weather is suppose to be raining and a high of 61. That may all sound like I’m complaining, but I’m really not....
