NYC - back again Uni style

Cruised down from MA to the citaaaee with my wingman Faucher to play an opeing solo set at Columbia Univ. with mentor and good friend, Brad Corrigan . The crowd of 60+ were into the groove and many thanks to all the students who stuck around after the show to chat it up and let me know how you felt about the music. It was a privledge to open the show for Braddigan, who has found his solo voice and is tearing it up on stage with percussionist Ray de Jesus. Looking forward with great anticipation to getting down there in the fall and hopefully playing again with the band in full bloom. Special thanks to Eash and John for promoting the gig and taking care of all the logistics.

The Big Apple - Bette Davis Eyes

Just got back from a sweet trip down to NYC to play my first gig in the big apple. The band and I got it started at CB's 313 in Soho with friends and family enjoying the mellow vibe of the gallery. Many props go out to the fellas, Erik and Dave, for setting the tone and keeping the groove steady throughout the set. The big love fest was all too present when friend and accomplished tenor sax player, Walter Smith, came up for a few songs and played some rapturing melody lines and solos to Outside, All this Rain, Pointing to you, and Passing Time. I definitely didn't want the night to end but was so grateful it finished on firm ground - By far one of the best sets we've played and I'm so psyched it was in NYC. Much thanks to all the people who made it out. We'll be back to the city May 26th at the Cutting Room.
