Sorry for the lack of recent updates! I've been busy with various projects, including the reunion of Crash Test Dummies, Jakob Dylan, Radio Free Song Club and Jude Johnstone. What else..? Did a concert with Chris Hillman a few months back that will be coming out as a live album on Rounder. And I have a couple of tribute shows to play with Ollabelle; Simon and Garfunkle and The Grateful Dead, in June and September (keep an eye on the LIVE PERFORMANCES sidebar).
	I recently played on Sting's new record "If On A Winter's Night", to be released in the U.S. on October 26. Check out the article in Rolling Stone. More news on possible touring plans to come shortly!
	I played with Loudon Wainwright on Late Night With Conan O'Brien on Sep 17; check out the video here. We played "Muse Blues" and the band included Tony Scherr, Glenn Patscha (from Ollabelle) and Andy Borger.
	Amy Redford's film The Guitar, which premiered at Sundance 2008 is opening in limited release on November 7 at The Sunshine Theater in NYC. It features a wonderful performance by Saffron Burrows and was written by Amos Poe. I also co-wrote a song with Peter Case for it. Read the Hollywood Reporter review here, and watch the trailer here. Don't forget to listen to the score on my "listen" page; soundtrack album available here!
	I scored Helen Hunt's directorial debut, "Then She Found Me", starring Helen, Bette Midler, Colin Firth and Matthew Broderick. The film was produced by Killer Films (Christine Vachon, Pam Kofler, Katie Roumel et al). It premiered at the 2007 Toronto Film Festival where it was picked up for distribution by ThinkFilm. The U.S. premiere was Jan 3rd, 2008 at the Palm Springs Film Festival. Read the Variety review here.

	I scored director Hilary Brougher's dark and powerful film, "Stephanie Daley", starring Tilda Swinton, Amber Tamblyn, and Timothy Hutton. It won the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Prize at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival and was released by Regent Releasing on April 20, 2007. The DVD is available on Amazon.

	I wrote and performed the score for Kathryn Dieckmann's film for HDNet, "Diggers", starring Paul Rudd. It premiered at the Toronto Film Festival in 2006, and was released on April 27, 2007, by Magnolia Pictures. This is our second film together. By the way, HDNet is a pioneer in the controversial "day-and-date" release strategy-- which means that the DVD is available to rent or buy! Listen to cues here.
