I hope to see some of you at The 9th annual Long Beach (NY) Jazz Festival (9/15-9/18). I will have my Stick-Tet set on Saturday, Sept. 17 at 3:15pm, followed by an invite to sit in for a tune with The Trio of Oz featuring Rachel Z and Omar Hakim. (That's gonna' be cool). I will also be playing Stick at some of the local clubs in the evening.
Other guests will be sitting in with my band. Gonna' be a great weekend.
And it's all free.
