The Conch Man: NEWS

The Conch Man and Gerardo Manrique catch the One Note Samba at Downtown Disney.

A song from the CD, "Freshwater Calypso" gets a slice of life video treatment.  My children, Max and Maria are the stars.  Abuela Yaya is priceless in her video debut. 

I've been spending many afternoons at Downtown Disney, performing with my new friend, Gerardo Manrique.

Gerardo is an outstanding Guitarist, and it's always fun.  Check my Gigs page and come on out.

The Conch Man - Vol. 2 - Making Waves has been released. Check it out!

Final mastering has just been completed on, The Conch Man - Vol. 2, Making Waves CD.  I'm very happy with this new CD of Island favorites featuring the Conch Shells.  The CD will be available in early May.  

The Conch Man - Vol. 1 - Coming Out of His Shell is now available on i tunes.  Just search for "The Conch Man" in the itunes store.  Happy downloading!

While working together on the production of The Conch Man - Volume 1 - Coming Out of His Shell, I mentioned to Tropical Music International's Steve Hendrickson -my good friend, that I've had many people over the years ask how they can get a Conch Shell like mine of their own.  Steve has a gift for taking an idea and turning into a reality. 

The Conch Man Musical Shell includes a personally hand-crafted Shell Horn, play-a-long CD and an instructional booklet.  The Shell is available at http://www.tropicalmusicinternational.com/. 

The first in (hopefully) a series of CD releases by The Conch Man is now available.  Through collaboration with my good friends at Tropical Music International, The Conch Man - Volume 1 -Coming Out of His Shell, consists of all familiar islands favorites featuring the Conch Shells.  Over the years, many people have asked for recordings of the Shells.  Here they are.
