I moved this from the Introduce Yourself thread.

“Yes, but it is hard not to be drawn to snow drifts at times @HighlandBass @Barney and others. I’ll try to make a tangential connection to skiing, snow, music, and bass. My passion for skiing fueled composing the 12-part Snowpeggio Suite on my sixth solo album, Depth of Feel. Each part is named after snow conditions. Some parts even have a good bass sound, albeit they are played using a keyboard. I’ll copy this post and paste it over on the Post your original songs thread along with music video links and a few more details.”

My Bolsheviks of Madrid collaboration partner, Bret Hamilton, has done many music videos for my solo work including the 12-part Snowpeggio Suite.
I’ll post links to the entire suite as well as an individual link to a shorter sample with a good bass sound,
