We don't release music very often, so I'd love it if you'd take a listen, and I promise not to fill the Jazzsky feed with too much self-promotion :)

Good grief, the new John Scofield album is so beautiful. He plays so much like himself, if that makes sense, that I can’t stop smiling.

We only release music around once a year, so apologies for the self-promotion but the release date just happens to be coming up soon. Here's a jazz ballad for a Sunday, if you like that kind of thing (jazz ballads, not Sundays). I promise most of my interactions will be genuinely social!

At a loose end during the stormy weather in Helsinki over the weekend, I remixed a jazz guitar trio EP I made a few years ago. It seems to take ages after recording something for me to actually like my playing on it, but I quite like this track now.
