He has released three critically acclaimed records: Shangri-La West (2000) Soul Parade (2006) and The Wilderness (2021).

Ethan Okamura, Steve Trivelpiece, and Jason Loeks. The band formed in the fall of 2014 and almost immediately started performing intimate shows near their home in Northern California. In the summer of 2015 they recorded their debut album live at Skywalker Sound. The album was voted by the Marin Independent Journal as one of the top 10 local albums of 2016 . Their sound ranges from the high lonesome twang to the low down dirty roots and is inspired by classic Americana singer songwriters while still retaining a unique sound all of it’s own.

Dinner Show with WALKING MIRRORS
Featuring:
Craig Bartock (Rock n Roll Hall of Fame Band Heart)
David Sikes (former decade long bass player/vocalist/songwriter for rock n roll band BOSTON)
Jeff Campitelli (50th Greatest Drummer of all-time: Rolling Stone)

“For me, our music is a creative collaboration of stories that musically connect to community.  Stories that reflect what is going on in the world today and resonate in an ear pleasing way. Playing that music live with some of the top musicians in the Bay Area (Craig Bartock-Heart, Jeff Campitelli- formerly with Joe Satriani, David Sikes- formerly with Boston) is surreal. Add my guitar shredding son Aidan, and it is like playing in a dream”
