Hello,

March is here! The weather is getting warmer and there's lots of great music happening this month. I hope you are having a great month so far and would love to see you.

February Month In Review

Late Night Host at Dizzy's Club Coca Cola
This past February I had the privilege of becoming the Late Night host at Dizzy's Club Coca Cola. It was great performing with the many talented bands featured each week and hearing musicians young and old coming together to play. Special thanks to everyone who came out and helped spread the word, making it a successful residency.

I also visited my alma mater Nathaniel Hawthorne Middle School  MS74 and conducted a saxophone clinic with 30 saxophone students. It was amazing to go back to where it all started but this time share and give back to the next generation of musicians.

Tappin Through Life
I also performed with the great tap legend Maurice Hines featuring the Diva Jazz Orchestra in the show  Tappin' Through Life. It was great getting to perform with Maurice one more time.

4Tet Goes to Central America: NicaraguaThis month the quartet and I are flying out to Nicaragua to perform in the Nicaragua International Jazz Festival. We're thrilled to be touring the next 10 days throughout the country conducting workshops, clinics and concerts in the cities of Bluefields, Leon, San Marcos and Managua. This trip will be a joint collaboration with the US Embassy reaching out to women, young students and musicians of the communities.
