For the past month, I've been working on recording a new all-jazz CD with some of the top jazzers in Philly. I'm really excited about how it's all coming together. Just great, great playing from:
Frank Strauss, piano
Chico Huff, electric bass
Steve Beskrone, upright bass
Grant MacAvoy, drums
What a treat to work with these guys!
AND... I'm so delighted and humbled to have making a 'cameo appearance' on the disc the jazz guitar legend, Jimmy Bruno. We recorded Jimmy's sides yesterday and, OMG, what a monster! Here's a shot from the studio:
There are even more surprises in store too...
Assuming no major disasters along the way, the CD should be available in time for ISGC over Labor Day.

Looks like Jimmy is imparting the
new pedal steel technique to you:
The 'thumbless eight-finger straight-across'
method is catching on all over! Get with it! 
I totally can't wait to hear your new project . . .

Going back into the studio tonight to finish mixing the album. I'm really excited about how it's all coming together. My secret: get the best damn players you can find anywhere, introduce the tune, and then get the heck outta their way!
