Hwy 1 Pacific Coast

Met a bunch of new folks and had some great conversations, playing along the Pacific Coast Highway in Bodega Bay, CA - only a few of which were captured in photographs ✌🏽❤️ nice to meet people from all over (Poland, Ukraine, New York, SF, Oakland, Petaluma, etc.) Also that’s a vintage @animalinstinctssf owl T-shirt I’m wearing (not a plug or sponsorship - just one of my best buds, neigbor and brand new father @jamailowell who I wanted to give a shout out to!) #newfaces #strangers #friends #pianoinavan #musician #piano #pianoinnature #californiacoastline #cali #cal #bodegabay #bayarea #travel #vanlife #vanlifediaries #conversation #communication

This was Mark, jumping in to play. He was heading north on PCH, through the Lost Coast and up to Oregon in a rented van with his wife (Dette) and family. Turns out he was quite the piano collector back in his home state of New York. I must admit, in different past settings, I haven’t always been especially open to people playing piano while I’m in the middle of playing . . . but the real joy of music comes from its contagious nature and the energy that is cultivated by ‘others’ joining in and expressing themselves - each of us stepping out of our comfort zones and sharing in creative collaboration. ✌🏽❤️ view full video in IGTV #stjimmyjoe #piano #pianoinnature #pianojam #pianojams #music #livemusic #collaboration #improv #improvisation #bodegabay #ca #california #californiacoastline #ocean #newfaces #newplaces #pianist #pianists #pch #highway1
