I have a few performances to prepare for.First of all, I’m the special guest artist at the Lake of the Pines Music open mic on Feb 2nd at 7 pm. I’ll be bringing Sean Robinson with me and we might even be able to get Michael Paul (LOTP Music’s owner) to sit in with us.
Then on Feb 18 the acoustic band will playing Pioneer Methodist Church in Auburn at 2:30 as part of the Music for Humanity concert. All proceeds go to benefit Habitat for Humanity and the Interfaith Food Closet.
The only problem is that "The Band" doesn’t have a name. I have no idea what Ethan, Sean and I should call ourselves. We don’t really fit into any particular format. A typical set will include some swing tunes, a gypsy jazz tune or 2 and perhaps a couple of bluegrass tunes. Then we’ll toss in a few celtic tunes. Depending on how we feel we may some jazz standards or a few Thelonious Monk tunes.
It’s an eclectic selection of music for a band made up of acoustic guitar, mandolins and fiddle.
AND I have to return a call to KAHI radio. Apparently, they want to interview me and have me play a few tunes. I’m excited, but also a bit nervous. I really need to do some practicing to get my chops up.
AND Don’t forget that the Slow Jam will be on Feb 13th which is the 2nd Tuesday of Feb. However, starting in March we’re going to move the slow jam to the 2nd Thursday of the month so we don’t conflict with the weekly Tuesday jam at "The Wild Chicken" just down the hill in Loomis.
Lots of events to go to. I hope to see you folks there.
