Fall News -- New Quartet CD

I'll be spending much of October in residence at the Atlantic Center for the Arts, in Florida, where I'll have the amazing opportunity to work with Roscoe Mitchell. I'm looking forward to having some time away from Chicago in warmer environs to work on some new music.  On the way down to the residency, I'll play a solo set in Columbia, SC at Conundrum Music Hall on October 9.

I'm also excited to announce the release of my quartet's debut recording, Charm Offensive, in November. The CD features Keefe Jackson on tenor sax, Devin Hoff on bass, and Marc Riordan on drums, performing five of my pieces and one of Marc's.

We'll be celebrating with a CD release show at the Hideout on November 9, though Jason Roebke and Frank Rosaly will be anchoring the rhythm section in place of Devin and Marc.
