Well, the Texas Jazz Festival is behind us now. It was an awesome event with such an appreciative and enthusiastic audience. We truly enjoyed it and we believe the crowd did as well. I also got to meet up with my old friend Bill Churchville, L.A. studio session musician and former lead trumpeter with Tower of Power. We last saw each other (FB not included) back in the mid '80s while playing in the Army Band stationed in Panama. It was great to reconnect!
Now it's back to the normal routine: practicing, writing, and all those other -ings needed to better oneself. Well, I should say sort of normal. There are other projects looming, including the documentary my wife, Michelle Carter and I are working on in conjunction with Fito Kahn of the Austin Jazz Alliance. It is the life story of Dr. Joe Bryant, an 87 year old WWII Veteran and still active jazz trumpet player. We are currently in fundraising mode, so if you are so inclined drop by our Indiegogo page and help us make this a reality.
Peace
