Dear friends,
Not a lot of current gigs, but man oh man am I busy! Well, not too efficient, so it SEEMS like Im busy...
Was a great, if bittersweet trip to NY in Jan. Awesome time with Thiago's family, including a night out to hear his nephew, Thiago Thiago de Mello (who remembered me from our meeting in Manaus 16 years ago!) and a great afternoon with the amazing Souren Baronian, NY Armenian clarinet player who is going strong at 85, as well as two sets from Souren at Golden Fest, a 3 day Balkan music bash in Brooklyn and NY.
I am madly preparing for CD release of PRA VOCE, brand new CD of the Dexter Payne Quintet,THUR Mar 13 at Caffe Sole AND SUN Mar 16 at Dazzle in Denver. Attendance required... if you want to be the first with a new CD! Anyone with ideas or contacts for getting the word out to the world (i.e. reviewers, radio stations, etc.) please speak up now!
Along with everything else, I am switching mail service. While DadaMail has been fine, I think Mail Chimp will be more powerful and easier to use. SO, I will be migrating this list over - you should get an email from me on MailChimp in the coming week. IF NOT, click the link below to sign up. In fact, why not just sign up anyway and then Ill have your zip code. Ill sort it out so you dont get doubles, promise! This is not ID theft, its just me informing you in a more intelligent way. Youll like it, I assure you! You guys will remain my main, local list for gigs in the region. But I have tons of folks "on the outside" whom I have left in the dark out of desire NOT to spam them with gigs far away. Blah blah! Trust me, youll like it.
