Hey everybody! Lots of great stuff going on this month!
For starters, it's about to be Mothers' Day, and we've got one MOTHER of a gig for you this Thursday night, May 10th:
Thursday, May 10 - We are at WILF'S Restaurant & Bar at Union Station, from 7:30 to 10:30. This will be the trio, featuring Andre St James on bass and Donny Osborne on drums - plus special guests!!! Please come on down and enjoy some jazz with us!
Some other future dates of interest:
Friday, May 18 - NORTH BEND, WA - this night it's the Donny Osborne Trio, with Geoff Cooke on bass and yours truly on saxophonic instruments.
Sunday, May 20 - TILLAMOOK, OR - I'll be playing with the Harry James Orchestra at the Don Whitney Auditorium. It's a matinee show, starting at 3:00pm. Tickets $25
Sunday, May 20 - PORTLAND, OR - if you're in Portland and if you don't go to the coast for the Harry James show, please consider going to Ivories Jazz Lounge at 4:30pm to hear the great Mike Longo. Mike was Dizzy Gillespie's pianist and musical director for many years, he's only on the west coast for a couple of dates and this is one of them! 4:30pm, $20 ($10 students)
Wednesday, May 23 - PORTLAND, OR - I'll be performing with the Bria Skonberg Quintet at Ivories Jazz Lounge (15th & NW Flanders, in the Pearl District).

She regularly performs with jazz luminaries like Nicholas Payton, Wycliffe Gordon, Bucky Pizzarelli, and more. She's touring to celebrate the release of her debut US recording, "So Is The Day" - be sure to catch her in her only Portland appearance!

From The Department of Redundancy Department: We are in the process of switching our mailing list over to ReverbNation. You should expect to receive a confirmation email from ReverbNation to be added to the new mailing list, and yes, unfortunately you might receive this email twice in the process. I apologize for any inconvenience but the new email list will be better, trust me!
That's it for now, see you later!! :)
