The cover from Jack Gold's Acoustic Reign Project-there is a special reunion concert in the works for the Fall-more later...
Here is a performance last summer, at The Museum of Glass in Tacoma, of choreographer Megan Finlay's piece "Brother". For my money, Megan really knows how to communicate a focused concept while bringing out the creativity of the artists. Big fun.
The Seattle Jazz Composers' Ensemble plays my piece "The Antipasto Waltz" on Friday, February 19th, 2010. Soloists are Mike Dodge, clarinet; me; Scott Morning, trumpet; Aaron Jenkins, alto sax; and Nate Omdal, bass.

Here is a link to Jason Webley and the Giant Vegetable Parade at Bumbershoot, the annual Labor Day blow-out at Seattle Center. Yellow Hat Band can be seen briefly (at the bottom of the Fountain Pit) and heard throughout vamping on Jason's "Drinking Song", and playing "Bisl Yash" and a kolo. Thanks to Jason for including us-I don't think he's been bored since the age of ten (minutes).
Here is a link to a 12-minute video about Lynette Westendorf's Sun Ra Tribute Project, featuring excerpts, produced by guitarist and videographer Terry Hunt. (Flash plug-in required.)
