🌼 May 2023 update

Welcome to May, everyone! I’ve included a couple of gigs in the list below that I won’t be playing on but will likely be attending anyways (they’re asterisked).

One of them, on Saturday, April 29, is An Evening of Slow Jazz with the Juniper Jazz Band, led by Sean Krazit. I’ve consulted a bit on this event and am pretty excited about it: it’s open to dancers and listeners and will uniquely feature music under 120 beats-per-minute.

Sean’s put together a playlist of tunes that he’s been inspired by, which you can find here on Spotify. Then, check out the Facebook event or buy tickets ($15–20, sliding scale).
