Well I just blew back from Chicago in time to sit in with Sky Cries Mary at Neumos for their CD release party of "Small Town". I played trumpet on the track 'Missing' and they asked me to come out and play at the show. I was honored to do so and totally enjoyed getting on stage in front of a packed house and blowing my horn. I really appreciated the round of applause and many cocktails I received from the fans! Thank you! Before that I was in Chicago for NeoCon 2007. I was hired by Gunlocke, a high end sustainable office furniture company out of New York, to perform at their showroom at the famous Kennedy owned Merchandise Mart in downtown Chi-town. It features 1200 showrooms and exhibitors showcasing thousands of cutting-edge commercial products and is attended by more than 50,000 design professionals. I layed down some silky smooth lounge grooves featuring live trumpet, keys, vocals and percussion. I had a blast performing for a packed showroom of design professionals from all across the country while they got their drink on and perused Gunlocke’s stylish wares. Gunlocke’s tagline: “Performance in Wood”. http://www.merchandisemart.com/neocon/index.html http://www.gunlocke.com/ Cheers!
