In September, I began work on the soundtrack for a new documentary on General William Wallace of Ottawa, IL.  Created by the Ottawa Historical Museum, the documentary tells of his life and his death at the battle of Shiloh.  I am pleased to say the documentary is completed and can be viewed from November 15th though 20th at the Ottawa Historical and Scouting Museum, 1100 Canal St. Ottawa.  Details below.

On July the 20th, I premiered my theatrical show Forgottonia at the Hainline Theater in Macomb, IL.  It was a great success!  Here is the opening narrative and the title song.
On Sunday, May 21st, 2023 I had the pleasure of visiting with WGN's Rick Kogan on his After Hours show to discuss Forgottonia and play a couple tracks. Listen to the conversation here.
