Montara Music Spanish Guitar Blog

Okay, well I just found this blog after several years. Sorry for the delay in getting back to ya'll but you know how busy life gets. I promise to do a blog more often than every seven years! So what's new? Well, I'm still playing at local gigs and doing a handful of weddings every year. I was playing at about 15-20 weddings a year, but with a day job that was just getting to be too much. Monty, our dog on the homepage, left us last month which was a big hit. Funny how he is on the homepage but really never cared about my music. I'd like say he was relaxed by music or it made him happy, but he never showed any emotion so I have no data to go on! Oh, this is a cool story.. Back in 2013 or so, I got a call from a concierge company saying that they had a "special client" who wanted to hire me on valentine's day. Turns out it was the CEO of Zynga who was at the restaurant wearing his "Words With Friends" tee shirt! Pretty wild. About a week later I put something about the event on my website (hey it was as close to 15 minutes of fame as I will ever get). Unfortunately, I got a call from Zynga a few days later. They "found" the reference on my website and asked that I take it down.. WTF? That's all for now. What did you expect, a recap of the last 6.5 years? :) If you're in the area, here are some of my standing gigs. I always have my new website up to date, so I hope to see you at a future gig!
