Two New Gigs: Black Fox Lounge, April 4; Fusion, April 7

I’ve just recently booked not one, but two gigs for the coming two weeks:

  • Thursday, April 4, 8 to 11 p.m., the Black Fox Lounge, 1723 Connecticut Avenue NW, Washington D.C. Backing me up will be D.C.-area veterans Scott Giambusso on bass and Barry Gurley on piano. This is my first full show at Black Fox (I sat in with others once before), so I’m excited. Cost: a mere $10 cover, no minimum. Click here for directions.
  • Sunday, April 7, 7 to 9 p.m., Fusion, 4815 Georgia Ave., NW, Washington, D.C. Joining me once again will be once again George Oakley (reeds and woodwinds), Scott Giambusso (bass) and Nick Lipkowski (guitar). You can make a reservation directly with the restaurant at 202- 726-2210, or just show up. Cover charge: $10. Click here for directions.

I hope you can make it to one or both.

Check Out My New Recordings

I finally got a chance to record some clean demo tracks of several songs. I hope you’ll check them out. Please go to my “Listen” page and then to the first four links under “studio tracks.” Or you can click each of the songs below:

These demos would not have been possible without Scott Giambusso, who not only played gorgeous guitar on each track but also engineered the recordings. Amazing. I’m grateful to him and to his New Door Productions. If you’re considering doing some recording, get in touch with Scott and New Door by clicking here.

These new tracks sure beat the others, which you will notice were rather primitively recorded (wax cylinders practically) during some of my live performances. But you’re welcome to check those out, too, especially if you like a little extra “ambiance” with your music.

Hope you like what you hear.
