CURRENT MESSAGE

Hope you are happy and healthy.  It's been great seeing many of you at recent gigs in and around the New York area.

As many of you know, bassist Allen Wu and I started a monthly open jazz jam at the Sentry Flatiron penthouse lounge in Chelsea (top floor of the Sonder Hotel, 37 W. 24th St.), and Allen helped get it off to a great start.  Allen relocated in March 2024, and keyboardist Eugene Oh joined me as co-host to continue the tradition.  The Sentry Flatiron is being rebranded as Wallflower.

Our next one will be Wednesday, November 6th at 6:30pm, and we'll continue with the format of a house band set followed by an open jam with audience members welcome to come up and play.  We appreciate the great turnout and support we have been receiving and look forward to continuing the tradition.  As in the past, you will be able to sign up and get more information on handstamp.com.

My second CD, Beyond, was released fairly recently (Summer 2022), and it is available on amazon.com and cdbaby.com.  My first release (On the Beach) is still available.  Sales proceeds from both releases are being donated to two good causes - Food Allergy Research & Education, Inc. and our local Adopt-a-Dog pet rescue organization.  We plan to continue donating generously to those causes in future years.  Thanks for your continuing support.

Best wishes for continued health, safety, happiness and peace!  Watch this space occasionally for news and other content.

Jamming with the band to kick off the reception at my daughter's wedding - May 2018.  A fun evening.  Congratulations, Julie and Matt!
