Upcoming Shows this week:
This Thursday I'll be at La Rev with The Blue Sky Group (8-12). Then on Sunday I'll be at Drom Taberna with a new group called Moonshine Revival.
Session Notes recorded at Jazz.FM!
A big thanks to Glen Crosse at @jazzfm91 for having me come by the station to record a “Session Notes”. Session Notes is a great concept; an hour feature where musicians talk about the music, followed by the tune being played as well. My episode will air January 26th. I was happy to get to play music from the Into The Daybreak Album as well as include some of the recent projects I’ve been blessed with the opportunity to work and record with
