“I’ve been trying to figure that out myself. It’s been a long path, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel,” Siegel said with a chuckle.
He is an award-winning and renowned harmonica player and composer. He is a member of the Siegel-Schwall band and the Chamber Blues group, which incorporates classical music and the blues in a unique way. He was invited to perform with John Lennon. He is a Rainbow Cone fan.

“When I was a kid…I never looked at a piece of artwork. Instead, I went inside the piece of artwork and explored it,” Siegel said. “A point comes where you realize that there’s this process behind the artwork.”
