Hard work is what keeps the ship moving.

My love life is like everyone else's - great, and then terrible.

I had the fortunate experience to play with people from different schools of music. Sam Rivers is from the fundamentalist school of music.

Sometimes I wonder if I got lulled into not wanting things because I grew up black in this country.

Serious musicians are finding it harder and harder to have a voice in the world of music these days.

James Brown is the reason I play guitar.

I love both my parents dearly.
