tonygerberThat’s right.  On March 2nd, I will have the extraordinary privilege of hosting Tony Gerber live in concert on BWDD.

For those of you who don’t know him, live space music pioneer Tony Gerber has been performing live music in front of audiences and live radio since he was 9 years old. For his space music projects, live and recorded, he mixes a love of electronic music with guitars and native flutes.

In addition to the live concert, I will of course take you on a journey through Tony’s released music, both as a solo artist, as Cypress Rosewood, and as part of the space music group Spacecraft.  This is going to be a very special night indeed.
