The 440s Play Connollys
again! You know the drill! Yeah!
It’s been a very long time… Performing with Stefano Zazzera at his FREAKS show.
OMG! How long has it been? 15 years? yeah, something like that. I am truly overjoyed and honored to be invited to perform with my friend Stefano Zazzera for his show, “FREAKS” which will showcase his latest album. His will be a lot of fun!
Music update April 2023
The music continues! It really does! I have been working diligently, and consistently, with multiple bands and projects. I tend to go where I am needed. I have not really kept up with my own music projects (yet!). I am currently focused on working with singer/songwriter John Virag and his band as his guitarist. We have been doing deep work to get the tones, transitions and chord choices just right. And while that is happening, we are working a new drummer to keep the groove going. I expect to be performing with John very soon.
The 440’s just had a fun birthday-themed show on April 15th at Connolly’s Pub. We promoted the show like a sort of double birthday event for me and for Pat Gillis. His birthday was in March, and mine is later in April so we decided to have some fun and make the gig on the 15th a fun happy birthday moment for the both of us. We had a lot of family and friends come to see us! And I had several very unexpected surprise guests show up. It was good to get up there and play our original songs that the band has been writing and playing these past seven years. It was fun to show them off and really great see the audience reaction. It was a winning combination and I certainly look forward to doing that again at other venues…
In the meantime, I will continue here on the website, going back in time so to speak, and putting back all of those moments and memories that I have had the most fun creating and performing and sharing. It is slowwwwwwly returning. I will get it done by the Summer and it will be something I will commit to maintaining from now on.
See you at the next show!
