About Chronicles
Chronicles is mostly informative essays about jazz and jazz drummers, with some excursions spotlighting colleagues and past masters outside jazz. There’s also updates on my musical activities— performances, tours, new recordings— and occasional personal or speculative essays, all centered around music.
I’ve used an editor once (was a great help), and I’ll share drafts with friends and take their advice, but I’ll never write a sentence with AI assistance.
