Listen to a Baltimore-Themed Holiday Playlist

Listen to a Baltimore-Themed Holiday Playlist

I recently began contributing to Baltimore Magazine. Here's my first piece:

Wendel Patrick, “Let’s Ride”
The holidays get me thinking about sleigh rides, which, while they weren’t the inspiration for this track, still make me think of “Let’s Ride.” The vintage keyboard sounds alongside spicy drumbeats and clean electric guitars make this a perfect fit for our off-the-beaten-path sleigh ride. When you’re finished, check out some of Patrick’s other projects and collaborations, like the Baltimore Boom Bap Society and Bond St. District.

I occasionally write for Sequenza21. Here's a concert review from a very special concert I attended in 2013:
