Bell Choir Studios, secret location in NE Los Angeles, Los Angeles, CA
Organist/pianist/singer/songwriter/producer Jake Sherman (currently living in London, England!) will be giving a special organ concert at this storied LA recording studio. In addition to solo selections, he will also feature a number of notable guest performers... and one of THOSE will be me :)
The Holly Martins (Eric Vogler- guitar, Kasey Knudsen- alto sax, and Lorin Benedict- voice) play this excellent Berkeley performance venue. We'll be sharing the bill with Lisa Mezzacappa's quintet :)
The great and wonderful MARLONIUS (aka, bassist/composer Marlon Martinez) will be leading this group of improvisers including myself on voice, Violet Hill on violin and electronics, and Jake Chapman on vibes.
Birds of a Feather Jazz Lounge, 710 West 1st St., Los Angeles
I'll be leading a trio comprised of myself and the MASTERFUL musicians Karl McComas-Reichl on bass and Christian Euman on drums... therefore, my use of term "leading" is silly in the extreme.
The DUO of drummer Anthony Fung and myself will play 2 sets at this GREAT LA establishment, in belated recognition of the release of our duo EP, "Duology", released at the end of June. We may have a few "ringers" join us too, as special guests here and there ;)
