Made it back to Austin after two weeks of touring Japan and North of Norway. Great music both weeks, and the Icelandic Volcano made the last few days in norway a very speciall experience.

Now Im preparing for the trio gig next week here in Austin together with Kidd Jordan and Hamid Drake.

New Atomic CD "Theater Tilters Vol. 1" out and Japan tour starts now!

The Atomic tour went really well, specially three full houses in Chicago was amazing - two at the Green Mill and one at the Cultural Center!!! Ended up the last stretch of gigs with playing in Austin - my new hometown - with Free Fall, a great night! Looking forward to soon be playing more gigs in Texas; Austin, Dallas and Houston on March 26th, 27th and 28th with Gordon Grdina Trio + a new improvising unit together with Stefan Gonzalez, Jason Jackson, Nick Cabrera and Carl Smith. Heading to Japan with Atomic on April 4th.
