An Evening at Savanna Jazz on Mission

So, I went out to Savanna Jazz with a fellow musician friend of mine, Gerald Beckett (He plays flute like no other!). We listened to the band led by a guy named Michael Jones - they were pretty tight, actually. They had a really young guy playing piano & sax there, too - he said he'd been playing there since he was even younger - cool! He was pretty good.



Gerald and I got a chance to play toward the end of the jam session there. I did Too Late Now and Autumn Leaves. It went pretty well. I know they work with all kinds of vocalists there, and they didn't know what to expect from me, but I think they were pleasantly surprised (I hope anyway!).

The amazing Gerald did a great song that I didn't know as well - and I'm having a total blank on the name of it! Anyway, great stuff and people were blown away by his talent, as usual. The audience appreciated my stuff as well, and asked us to return on Thursday night, when there will be another Open Mic/Jam Session that is more vocalist-centric.

I think I'll we'll be there.
