London, England 


Happy New Year everyone! It’s really something special to be back in London this year performing at the Royal Albert Hall. Although it’s a bit cold and rainy, we’re still enjoying visiting all of the numerous historical sights and exploring what this city has to offer as much as possible… Cheers!!!

"TOTEM" CD 


The newest Cirque du Soleil CD “TOTEM” has just been released and I have the pleasure of playing Hammond organ, accordion and keyboards on a few tunes. The composers (Marc Lessard and Guy Dubuc) did a superb job with the music, arrangements and production and I am very honored to have been a part of the process… Thanks to everyone who was involved and long live “Totem”!

São Paulo, Brazil 


It’s never a dull moment here in Sao Paulo. Lot’s of traffic, confusion and complicated situations… but amidst it all is a real sense of excitement and inspiration that is reflected in the music, food and culture. Just last night we went to a small club where the band was playing traditional choro music and we ate a delicious local dish of pumpkin and dried meat… Muito bom!

Alambari, SP Brazil 



It’s great to be back in Brazil this month! We’re spending our weekdays in São Paulo and weekends at Gargolandia (www.gargolandia.com.br) one of the best recording studios in the world. It’s been especially nice to catch up with old friends and family here and just absorb as much music as possible…

Montreal, Quebec 


Happy New Year everyone! While there’s a few feet of snow on the ground here in Monteal and it’s well below freezing I’ve been video-chatting with my wife Mariana down in Brazil where it’s extremely hot and sunny (she’s at the beach in Rio de Janeiro!) and it’s been really interesting to see the extremely different images that our mother Earth has to offer in real time! 2010 is starting to look promising for us as Mariana finishes up her tour of Brazil with Cirque du Soleil’s “Quidam” and I start working on the creation for the newest Cirque 2010 touring production as the keyboard player and bandleader. Here’s to a great new decade and let’s make it one of the best ever… Cheers!

Uptrio! 


The new Uptrio cd is now available worldwide! Here's an excerpt from the liner notes by Larry Goldings:

"Throughout this disc of original compositions, the UPTRIO deals in strong melodies, unexpected chord progressions, lyrical improvisations, and high-spirited group interaction. They can swing, groove, and emote on many levels... just plain good music."
