July 2008
Some exciting things going on this summer. Paul Carlon's latest recording with the Octet, "Roots
Propaganda", just came out. It sounds excellent and has a lot of great music on it. Stay tuned for a record
release gig, although we'll do a "cameo" of sorts at the Central Park Summerstage on August 1st.
Pending release is Shinichi Nakanishi's recent quintet recording, which features myself along with Eishin
Nose and Lonnie Plaxico.
This month Lou Caputo's "Not So Big Band" will go into the studio to record for an upcoming release, and
the band will feature among others Howard Johnson on tuba and Billy Hart on drums.
Next month I will bring my quintet to the Brooklyn Lyceum, featuring some new tunes. More info on that
and everything else on my schedule page.
Keep checking back for updates.
