I was fortunate enough to attend schools with fantastic music programs (thanks ⁦ChaminadeCollegePrep⁩!), and know that this will be as big a part of EVH’s legacy as his music was. americansongwriter.com/eddie-van-hale…

Fun baseball stat of the day: In his 2012 rookie season, Mike Trout stole 3 bases in a game three times. Since the start of the 2020 season, he has stolen 3 bases total. #MikeTrout #Baseball

Surprised and thrilled to find Sonny Rollins in my podcast feed this morning, courtesy of ⁦Broken Record⁩. There’s no greater living jazz legend than Sonny. overcast.fm/+K89kTmb5M

We've lost another titan of jazz. Go see these older legends play live while you still can. #RamseyLewis nytimes.com/2022/09/12/art…

I first met Andrei when I was 17, and he encouraged and supported my interest in pursuing politics as a passion and as a career. He's continued to do amazing things in the two decades since, and I'm thrilled to see him running for Congress in the #AZ01.

Pleased to see Alice Coltrane get her well-deserved spot in the DownBeat Magazine Hall of Fame! Now we just have to get the next highest vote getters (Pharoah Sanders, Charles Lloyd, Kenny Burrell) in as well. All highly deserving and overdue for inclusion!
