Site Updates Coming Soon!

Happy New Year!

It’s been many months since I promised a complete overhaul of the site. I’m pleased to report that it’s now imminent. The redesign is now well underway, with a slew of new features added, into the bargain.

Watch out for a new BryanDavis.info – launching on (or maybe even slightly before) February 1st, 2014.

Redesign Underway…

The current version of BryanDavis.info has been gracing your computer screens for a little over 4 years now. That makes it positively prehistoric, at worst, or “a bit out of date” at best! There have been a couple of tweaks and additions here and there, but it has basically remained the same since February 2009 – a little over 4 years!

I’ve decided that it’s time for a change, and have commenced the re-design process. I can’t say exactly how soon the new site will be ready – I’m thankfully pretty busy right now – but the change is coming. Included will be an improved experience for mobile users and, hopefully, better use of devices of all shapes and sizes.

There… I’ve said it! Now time to get it done!

April 2013 — With The UMaine Jazz Ensemble

This week, I’m having a great time visiting the University of Maine, up here in Orono, ME – I’m performing this evening (April 25th, 2013) with the UMaine Jazz Ensemble, directed by Dr Jack Burt. We had a lot of fun at the rehearsal yesterday and the band sounds really good! I’m thoroughly looking forward to the concert tonight. If you’re in the area, I urge you to come and support live music! We’re playing in the Minsky Recital Hall on the UMaine campus at 7:30pm. Here’s the poster, with all the details:

Then tomorrow, Friday April 26th, I’ll be giving a masterclass from 1-3pm in Room 100, in the Class of 1944 Hall on campus. This is also open to the public, so please swing by if you have time and interest. Then, in the evening, we have the event which is arguably most interesting to my online audience!

On Friday evening, April 26th, I’ll be performing live with the band on Maine Public Radio, on Rich Tozier’s Friday Night Jazz show. You can listen in on WMEH Bangor, 90.9FM, if you’re close by or live online. The show starts at 8:30pm and we will be playing from 9-11pm (EDT) – you can listen online by going to MPBN.net.

Finally, on my way home to NYC, I’ll be making a stop in Wakefield, MA, just outside of Boston, on Saturday, April 27th, to play with the weird and wonderful Mr Ho’s Orchestrotica at Wakefield Unitarian Universalist Church as part of the Standing Room Only concert series. Tickets are going fast, so book your seat now! Full details are on my Schedule page.

Hope to see you out and about this week!
