Jeff Lorber was in town today promoting his new CD "Heard That" at Borders.  Thanks to Bruno and Clint for giving me the head's up, I was able to catch his trio peformance.  Jeff (keys), Nate Phillips (bass), and Mr. Mac (drums and other tracks).  Simply awesome...as usual.  Most memorable moment?...playing Gershwin....now how 'bout that.

Just received Paul's new CD!  Talk about funk!  You think Brian Culbertson's latest release was "funky" (Bringing Back the Funk)?  Well, this CD is "funkier"!  Go buy the new release and check it out.  It is available at CDBaby.  By the way, check out the credits ;)

I performed with the renowned Solsa Band of Sacramento at a private function last night...a lovely wedding at the Radisson Hotel, Sacramento.  It was definitely a beautiful night for celebration.  The bonus of the evening was that Brian Culbertson was also performing at another venue within the hotel.  I was able to view parts of his performance during the our extended breaks.  He was definitely throwing it down! ...Thank you Joe Garcia and band for allowing me to perform with you all.
