*Update*
I was honored to lend my banjo picking to an important cause on February 9th, 2025. With wildfires devastating many in California, Dynasty Typewriter hosted a live reading of my favorite film, 1979’s THE MUPPET MOVIE, to help bring funds and aid to those affected. Matt Wilkie brought together some of the funniest improv comics in LA for this successful event!
