My busy music week here in Seattle so far. …
Monday night at Paratii Craft Bar in Ballard with Jeff Busch and Eric Verlinde and that whole gang… this jam is fun and loud with great players and percussionists and singers. Sitting in was… what it was……
Tuesday night at the Queen Anne Summer sessions: There was a benefit for the Sounders this past Tuesday and the place was packed. I guess some of the Sounder players were guest bar tending. This is a singer songwriter jam that I’m trying to move towards the jazz singer type thing that we are all used to. Singers are greatly encouraged to sit in. This Jam needs more talent so bring a chart and sit in. There is no cover. This coming week Steve Rice will be on keyboard.
Thursday night I paid a visit to the Sea Monster in Wallingford and caught Martine Bron the Swiss Girl herself and her new band, Ashley Webster (piano), Wolf Kienzle (guitar), Arturo Rodriguez (drums) Farko Dosumov (bass). Sassy sexy European fun funky stuff. Martine is a pleasure to hear and watch perform her tunes.
Tomorrow Friday night I’m washing up for jazz and sushi at Hiroshi’s to watch Pony Boy recording artist Aria Prame.
Saturday??????????????
