New: Awesome Video!

Greetings,

Back in 1997, I first had the pleasure of throat-singing with a didgeridoo player, my good friend Bernard Dubreuil. I was struck by the gorgeous combination of sounds, and since then have had the sheer pleasure of many, many jams with my didg-playing friends. In 2003, I finally succumbed, and began to play the didg in earnest.

Because of the great crossover in interest between the didgeridoo and throat-singing, it's been my great privilege to befriend many fine didge players. What a great joy it's been to jam together, and to learn from them! I recognize that most new players don't have the access to world-class didg players that I was lucky to meet, so it's really nice for us to be able to offer the first-ever online didgeridoo lessons.

This website is my small way of giving something back to the didge community, and of sharing my passion for the didg with the world-at-large.

Have fun!
