This Thursday 5/26 I will be at Perry's Steakhouse in Sugarland from 6PM-10PM. I'll be playing upright bass with a jazz trio, including piano and drums. Drop by for coffee and dessert, or a drink, or a delicious, expensive steak dinner.

On Sunday 5/29 I fly to Chattenooga, TN to play with the Smith Band. I'll be playing worship music on my electric bass. We will be playing summer camps for most of June and July, and I'll keep you posted.

Gigs Last Week

Last week was very busy, and I didn't have time to post. Last friday I played at the new Perry's Steakhouse on Cypresswood in Northwest Houston. Less than 10 minutes from my house, which was a major plus! I played jazz with the great pianist Ted Wenglinski and drummer George Weimmer. A very nice place, and we had a great time playing.
Saturday night I played for a huge wedding reception downtown. I played swing jazz with the 18 piece Richard Brown Big Band from 8:30PM till 10:30 during dinner. After that, an R&B band from New Orleans played for dancing
