Busy day! 

This afternoon, I’ll be playing with Corey Cott for his set at Elsie Fest, at the Ford Amphitheatre in Coney Island, NY. We hit around 3:10pm

This evening, I’ll be back with the  Vanguard Jazz Orchestra at The Village Vanguard in NYC. 2 shows – 8:30pm & 10:30pm. Always a joy to play with this amazing band. 

Happy Labor Day to my American friends. 

Looking forward to some Big Band Double Duty, this evening:

First, I’ll be with the Birdland Big Band for their regular Friday show at Birdland in NYC. We’ll be roaring away from just 5pm until 7pm. We’ll be featuring some new music tonight, so come and check it out!

Second, I’ll be joining Gregorio Uribe’s marvellous Big Band for their monthly visit to Ginny’s Supper Club, in the basement of Red Rooster, at Lenox Ave and 125th St in Harlem. 2 shows, at 8pm & 10pm. Great big band latin jazz with a Colombian flavour.

Hope to see you out and about tonight!

Looking forward to playing with this special, predominately Israeli, incarnation of the Eyal Vilner Big Band, at the Red Sea Jazz Festival in Eilat, this evening. We’ll be performing on the Sea Club stage at 11:15pm. It’s been a fun day with a great rehearsal and perhaps the hottest sound check I’ve ever experienced – it was literally 36C/97F when we were out there, this afternoon! 

Anyway, if you’re at the festival, please come and check it out. You won’t be disappointed!
