His resume includes the Neville Brothers, Bonnie Raitt, the Rolling Stones, and Keith Richard’s X-Pensive Winos. The keyboard player, singer, and songwriter grew up as r’n’b royalty playing in the Neville Brothers with his father Aaron and his uncles, Art, Charles, and Cyril. Years of solo records and high-profile session work led to ultimate redemption from the pitfalls of rock’n’roll indulgence. His powerhouse band Dumpstaphunk is poised for a 2021 release of their new record. Tonight he joins the Troubled Men, and redemption may be hard to come by.

Topics include a road trip recap, the vaccine, Dylan’s catalogue sale, an early case, a last NYC gig, a long recovery, school days, music training, James Booker, influences, early ’70s soul music, meeting Keith Richards, a Steve Jordan/Sammy Davis Jr. bit, a bottom, hanging with Mick and Steve Bing, a landmark set at Bonnaroo, a record deal, new music, the future, a film score, and much more.
