Here’s where I’ll be this month, would love to see you at one or many of these dates. Bonus points if you happen to be in DC for Blues Alley or Soave, Italy at the end of the month!!
I was devastated to hear that the absolute legend Ken Peplowski passed away. I’m extremely grateful to have experienced Ken’s otherworldly musicianship, warmth and generosity of spirit, and incredible sense of humor both on and off the bandstand these last few years. May we all continue to celebrate his life and legacy by making beautiful music together, making each other smile and making each other laugh.
