Damn we played a good show last night.

October 14, 2018

Common Time opened and really did a fantastic job. Josh Carter leads the band playing alto and he never misses a lick. The rhythm section is Spencer Rawlins, bass; Al Clevenger , piano; and Chris Issom, drums. They are also the rhythm section for the ASU Jazz Orchestra. Nuff said.

Then NJHB did it's usual wild thing playing 5 originals including one, “Breezes” we had never played before. Shawn and I sang a scat duet and I even got up and danced. Chris, Alex, and Shawn all drummed. And Al was the star of the show, playing vibes with NJHB.

The audience was great, clapping along and obviously digging the music. And we had coffee and cookies. What more could you ask for?

The next New Jazz In Jonesboro will be on November 10 featuring Bebop Beatniks and NJHB. Put it on your calendar.
