Announcement

I'll be playing harmonica and/or keyboards for an artists' reception 5 pm to 7 pm Friday August 24, 2012 at the Roadrunner's Coffee House near Dalton State College in Dalton, Georgia.  (I'm one of the artists as well!!!).  See you there.

UPDATE AUGUST 26, 2012
Lots of people showed up for the Artists' Reception at Roadrunners Coffee House Friday night.  Thank-you Don and Amanda (owners of the Roadrunners Coffee House) for sponsoring this occasion (and the art showing, too).  I enjoyed meeting everyone.  My portable electric keyboard was having technical problems, so I didn't play.  Actually, the reason I didn't play, was I thought I should get paid the same rate Bruce Springsteen gets paid!  (Just kidding!!!)  Anyway, here's some good advice:  make Roadrunners Coffee House in Dalton, Georgia a place you visit frequently for tasty and healthful treats, a real cozy atmosphere, and friendly conversation.  I love it.

PLUS...
My work will also soon be showing at (and selling at) The Creative Arts Guild's 48th Annual Festival of Arts and Crafts, Saturday September 15th 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. through Sunday, September 16th 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. (Dalton, Georgia).

Piano Man

Check out this new video of me (Tony) improvising on the piano at Rock Church near Mentone, Alabama.  Did someone say "Man, what are you doin' here?"

A duet with my sister: me on harmonica, my sister Gina on piano

Here's me on harmonica dueting with my sister Gina who's on piano (we're improvising and working it out as we go along; not rehearsed):

I'd like to draw your attention to the fact that my girlfriend Melissa is the featured actress in a black-and-white "Silent Movie" short-sketch that can be accessed via youtube and/or via her website.  You can go to my "links" pages to access her website, but to directly access her sketch just click below:
