Zazz is an wonderful actress, singer, and songwriter. She's performed in theater, concert and cabaret venues. She's appeared on Late Night with Stephen Colbert and in the HBO documentary Master Class with Bobby McFerrin, and she's toured with the Trans-Siberian Orchestra. Here's how she came to be a guest. I first came across Zazz when I interviewed Will Healy, a fabulous musician, about a year ago. One of the works that he gave me for the Songfest was a Zoom video by his group Shouthouse and it featured a terrific singer. I told him that I really liked the video, particularly the singer. And he told me that the singer was Zazz. And then some months later I interviewed the incredible rapper Dizzy SenZe on the show. She also performed with Shouthouse and she sent me the same video, the one with Zazz singing. I knew that I had to have her on the show and she introduced us. My featured song is my reimagined version of “The 'In' Crowd”. It's from the album PGS 7 by my band Project Grand Slam.

This episode announces the release of the new re-mixed and re-mastered “Ma Petite Fleur String Quartet”. The new recording has been released on St7dio - Classical, the boutique classical label owned by multiple Grammy® winner Kitt Wakeley and which is run by Allison Charney. Allison is a Grammy® nominated opera singer in her own right, and a recent guest on the podcast. Here's the back story. In 2012 I wrote and recorded a jazz ballad that I called “Ma Petite Fleur” (my little flower). My ballad was an instrumental love song that I wrote for my wife. In 2025 I got the idea to transform this song into a classical string quartet piece. The new work was arranged by David Shenton and performed by a superstar quartet consisting of Katie Thomas on violin 1, Erica Dicker on violin 2, JJ Johnson on viola, and Dave Eggar on cello. The recording was praised by a host of world class classical artists, and it quickly accumulated nearly a half million views on YouTube. In June 2026 I was introduced to Allison Charney as a guest on the podcast. Allison heard my string quartet piece and said she wanted to re-release it on her label, St7dio - Classical, in a new, re-mixed and re-mastered form including in Dolby Atmos, the latest audio technology.  The new version of “Ma Petite Fleur String Quartet” has just been released by St7dio - Classical. I invite you all to download and/or stream it.

In Robert Frost's famous poem, called “The Road Not Taken”, a traveler comes to a fork in the road and must choose between two paths. The poem is really about life's crossroads—those moments when we must choose between the expected path and one that is uncertain, unconventional, and uniquely our own. My life has been about pursuing that second path. Like most people, I spent much of my adult life raising a family, building a career, and meeting the responsibilities that come with adulthood. My youthful dream of becoming a rock star musician remained just that—a dream. But as I approached age 60, when most of my contemporaries were approaching retirement, a light went off in my head. I realized that if I did not pursue that dream now, I would never do it. And I didn't want to look back later in life and regret that I had not even given my dream a chance. So figuratively, I jumped into the deep end of the pool. I gave up my other pursuits and committed myself fully to music. And you know what? It turned out to be the best decision I ever made. As of today I've released 15 albums (including a Billboard #1), numerous singles, written an Amazon #1 bestselling book, and created Follow Your Dream, a global arts platform featuring more than 750 conversations and more with world-class artists from around the globe. In this Essay I delve into the pros and cons of finding your path when you reach that crossroads. Like my other essays, this essay has been published on the Medium app. And it's available on the Essays page of Follow Your Dream. I hope you will take a look. And stay tuned for future essays periodically.

My guests today are Tasha Warren and Dave Eggar. Tasha is a 2x Grammy nominated clarinetist and bass clarinetist, and an international performer who has premiered over 100 works worldwide. She's a member of the American Modern Ensemble, Lansing Symphony and Jackson Symphony Orchestra. Dave Eggar is an amazing cellist who is making his third appearance on this podcast, putting him at the top of my frequent flyer list. What's even more impressive is that each appearance has been in a different context - first in his own right as a world class cellist, then as the cellist and QB of the fabulous string quartet that recorded my recent release, “Ma Petite Fleur String Quartet”, and now with Tasha. Oh, and I should mention that he's got 7 Grammy nominations, he's played with Paul Simon among dozens of top artists, and he was the guy who was responsible for the iconic cello work on Coldplay's massive hit, “Viva La Vida”. Okay I think you get the picture. My featured song is “The Buzz”, my latest single.
