Hi friends! Just got back yesterday from playing the Twin Tiers Jazz Festival in Elmira, NY. I played cornet with Jack Bacon's group, the Morgan Street Stompers. I got to hear three other trad jazz groups, and met a lot of great musicians and jazz fans. Weather was gorgeous and the turnout for the event was great. I had a fantastic time, and I'm sure this event will lead to more similar opportunities down the road!
Tuesday I'm playing a quartet gig with the great Michael T Jones for SUNY Buffalo orientation, then racing over to Iris Restaurant (formerly Bobby McGee's) to play a set or two with Pete Malinverni and Jody Sandhaus!
Wednesday, I'm playing with the Magpies at Wegmans on Dick Road (Depew, NY) from 6 - 8 pm.
Thursday I'm back at the gazebo in Lewiston with Ron Corsaro's Upstate Express, 7-9 pm.
Friday I'm headlining the Lewiston Jazz Festival as part of the band backing up Pete Malinverni and Jody Sandhaus! Music starts @ 5:30 pm.
Saturday I'm playing with my group the Magpies on the Frontier House porch at the Lewiston Jazz Festival at 12:15 pm, then later that night with Ben Baia and the Big City Horns at Templeton Landing.
