Music Is One Big Thing To Me.

My Older Brother Mike Is An Excellent Trumpet Player. By The Time He Was 12, He Was Playing Around Kansas City In Classical Situations. He Was Already An Amazing Talent.

Music Is What You Notice When It's No Longer In Your Presence.

I Just Have Never Seen Anyone Build Anything Significant In Any Field Without Having A Deep And Detailed Sense Of What They Are Building On.

As Much As I Have Done Collaborations Over The Years, I Am Actually Kind Of A Reluctant Partner.

I Was Able To Work With The Best Musicians In Kansas City Starting When I Was Really Young
