Another recent museum shot - not sure which artist is my backdrop.
Tonight - we play a show in Park Slope, Brooklyn. Wrapping up spring tour in style!
Remember when I was so flipping excited to be going to this and then my body rebelled? Grr. Hope everyone involved has a phenomenal evening.
Good review in today’s New York Times for our Ecstatic Fest show on Tuesday!
I’m quite pleased!

I cannot believe I have to miss this. Sending good vibes to all of the artists in there.NYC. The stage is set for the Ecstatic Fest tonight - we hit it in 15 minutes. Pretty much every instrument you can imagine on stage here!
I think this dude is amazing. Check out this beautiful documentary about his music. Go, Jonny!Jonny Rodgers - Documentary on my Wine Glass music.
From Shoot Shoot Studios.
Candid interviews, improv and some background on how I developed my Glass Music. This is the documentary from which my Swung On A Swing live video was excerpted. It was filmed at Harkness in Waterford, Connecticut by Shoot Shoot Studios on a cold, rainy autumn day. My hands nearly froze! The brave, hardy crew persisted despite the weather and captured some really fantastic moments!
Jonny Rodgers - Swung On A Swing - One shot, live - this is an excerpt from a documentary that was shot in October about my Wine Glass Music, by the filmmaker Kevin Kelley - documentary coming soon! We’d gone up the CT coast to shoot in some abandoned, broken greenhouses, but the weather turned really sour, so we were forced to take shelter under this portico. We feared was almost too “pretty”, but it ended up being the best shelter we could find from the cold and wet weather. We did this as an extra after a long afternoon of shooting - it was a single take, and I love how the sun began to break through just as we began shooting - what light!
It was so nice hangin with Jonny today as he made beautiful music in the streets of NYC.
So sorry I missed it! For you other NYC folks, Jonny Rodgers will be back here tomorrow Sept 12. Check his website for more info.
Cool pics from yesterday’s performance at The Wonder Walk!
I’m playing in NYC again on Monday night. New songs for glasses, guitars, loops and samples. Come! Here are the details:
