Field recordings made 2016 and 2017 at three locations on the Pacific Coast of Fort Bragg, CA.

From Chicago, lifetime striving to play jazz piano, involved in electronic music since getting ARP 2600 in 70's. More recently also drawn to ambient music. Lucky to be on the northern California coast playing steady piano gigs and now making soundscapes of this time and place.
