Rumble King played a great show at a private event on saturday night….and I go to Orlando to play at The House of Blues with Blues Train this weekend. I already have my eye on some of the area rollercoasters….great music and great rides…can’t wait.

A Good Week For Session Work

SammyK — Sat, 24 Apr 2010 08:36:51 +0000

I did two really different and very cool sessions wednesday and friday. John Ramey had me play on “Mary” one of my favorite songs we do live, and Ted Perlman brought me in on a country session he is Producing. Needless to say, doing two sessions with two of my favorite Musicians in a few days made quite a nice end to my week. I appreciate them both, and am honored to be a part of what they do.

This Ain’t Your Daddy’s Big Band does it again

SammyK — Tue, 13 Apr 2010 07:38:18 +0000

Played another solid gig with Rex Merriweather’s big band tonight. We play every 2nd and 4th monday and the band is really coming into it’s own. I have the pleasure of playing with some of LA’s finest Musicians, and to have my friend Al Person on Percussion as well! It is just a little too much fun sometimes!

Canada went well-Levi went to number one

SammyK — Thu, 01 Apr 2010 20:43:48 +0000

I am just back from Canada where I did a duel clinic with Charlie Crowe of Nashville songwriting and Brooks&Dunn fame. It was a great few days of teaching and music making, and Charlie was just such a blast to work with. Levi Kreis’ had the number ONE video at MTV.com this week and I played Drums on it. Levi is currently on Broadway, and I look forward to more gigs with him in the near future.
