Dudley Owens and I are proud to announce we have finished producing "People Calling!"
Our new jazz record, People Calling, reflects the intense changes happening in the world today. The record features several of my new compositions as well as some great writing by Dudley Owens. We are booking a CD Release tour for April 2012. Dates will be posted soon!  |
Demanding, melodic and confrontational, alternating competitive dissonance with translucence.
-Dick Crockett, AccessSacramento.com, "The Voice" 88.7FM Outstanding original compositions that take in parts from bebop, modal jazz, and post-bop. The pieces are rich, textural, and full of life throughout. -Adam Greenberg, All Music Guide

Eleven Daughters, my debut on Origin Records, features the mastery of Darrell Grant on piano, Tim Willcox on tenor and Brian Menendez on drums.
This album is entirely acoustic. It explores four of my original compositions, two extemporaneous works, and the standard Laura, which was collaboratively arranged by the band around a re-harmonization by David Michel-Ruddy. Laura is dedicated to my friend Laura Sweeting, who passed away in December 2009. We miss you Laura! |
