Collaboration work with The Conversation Project Band


Over the years I have had many bands, and all of them unique. This band is a dream team. Each member brings a unique experience and knowledge of music, especially the rhythm section. Zach and Gail both played with David Bowie and added significantly to the sound of David's Band. Always ask the drummer whom he likes as a bass player. If you're lucky you get the two.

The creative options are endless and a little ESP goes a long way. After I lost my best friend and writing partner, guitarist Ronny Drayton, there was only one person I could think of to choose; guitarist Eddie Martinez.

And that is The Conversation Project Band.

The Japan Foundation presents

Beyond the Lines:
Oscar OIWA

The spread of Covid-19 had a heavy impact on society worldwide, and contact between individuals has been greatly curtailed to contain the pandemic. Art museums around Japan have been affected by the situation, with institutions being forced to close their doors, and many exhibitions having to be canceled or postponed. Despite these circumstances, artists are still actively producing and exhibiting. The Japan Foundation (JF) is organizing an online exhibition by six such artists to present their new works, along with interviews, to give viewers at home the opportunity to discover and enjoy their art.
