TORANPETTO - Satellite

The Pacific Northwest is known for warm, dry summers and cool, wet winters—and Portland is no exception.

Portland Rain

Toranpetto - Portland Rain

Farnell Newton - 10 Minute Trumpet Jams 
The 10 Minute Trumpet Jams project started as a self-challenge, an experiment to see how I could find the time to practice and record during my busy days touring, parenting, and networking. Equipped with my Macbook Pro and Logic Pro recording software and with my challenge in mind, I was able to carve out 10 minutes of the day to record wherever I was. Sometimes, I was at home with my family; other times, I was on the road touring with Jill Scott or Bootsy Collins. But wherever I was, I made space for 10 minutes of creativity and focus.
