I am horrified and saddened at the tragic loss of one cinema’s greatest directors.
I can’t even begin to list the films this guy made that impacted me throughout my life. We all know them. A legend. A true genius.
Rest in peace, Rob Reiner 💔

When #GodofWar, #TheSingularity, and #Eivør collide! Working together on God of War was one of those rare experiences that stays with you forever. I’m grateful we could join forces again on The Singularity where her voice naturally brought this track to life. Maybe we should do more? 👀

I had fun playing hurdy gurdy for my dear friends Ira Ingber and Steve Bartek on the debut LP of their new band BarIng All.
I’ve been jamming with these gentlemen for more than 20 years, on countless scores and concerts. (Continued in thread)
