His 2012 album "Jericho" was received with impressive reviews and his signing to publisher Splash Point (Liane Carroll, Ian Shaw) demonstrates just how talented he is.

Most recently Theo has been focusing on his latest record, โ€œShoeless & the Girlโ€, released through Dot Time Records. This evening, Theo will perform material from that album, including his adaptations of โ€œFootprintsโ€ and โ€œWild Flowerโ€ (which have been personally approved by Wayne Shorter), as well as a selection of standards written by composers including Pat Metheny & Duke Ellington.
