This one features Matt Skversky on guitar. I was really happy I was able to shoot this video with Matt… First of all… he picked a GREAT song!! (more about that in a second) Second of all, I was able to squeeze this in before Matt left L.A. for good, and I was really happy that we were able to make it happen!

Matt was only in LA for a short time, but he quickly got involved with our little circle of musicians and made his mark playing bass for The Cold Chills while he was here. We are *so* going to miss him!

The song he chose was Amy Winehouse’s “Back to Black” … I love this song. This was the song that made me realize what a great songwriter she was… like, next-level…she stopped me in my tracks with lines like …

“Life is like a pipe…and I’m a tiny penny rolling up the walls inside…”

Really, Amy!? you’re killing me… She had this way of getting you inside her head and somehow making you understand… She had a perfect balance of blunt realism and poeticism that I always loved… so sad that she’s gone.

So, this is our take on a great tune… Thanks for shooting this with me, Matt!!! And as always, special thanks to Rob Gaudet for shooting and editing this video!!!

Seems like a lifetime ago, actually….but we both ended up here in LA and have always been friends… so I asked (forced) him to join me for this session.

Casey is in the band 9 Electric, and if you haven’t already heard of them I have a feeling you may soon… they’re kinda blowing up at the moment, So stay tuned… Check them out here: www.9electric.com

He chose the song “Uprising” by Muse…I love this song… and you know, we did our own little thing with it…

THANKS CASEY!! …and of course, very special thanks to Rob Gaudet for shooting & editing this video!

Noah chose an amazing song, Eric Clapton’s “Change the World“. I didn’t realize how much I loved this song until we started working on it! Thanks for joining me Noah! 

And special THANKS to Rob Gaudet for recording and editing this video!!

Stay tuned for Session 3, coming soon!!

This is an incredible window into Stevie’s life, a rare peak into his uncontrollable creativity, and an example of his impact on the crusade for civil rights….

For anyone who loves Stevie Wonder and his music (as I DO) this documentary is a must see…
