friday night

I had a great gig on Friday night with my friends Starry Nights (ex-hearsay mandolinist Jeff Simard and vocalist Dagmar Morgan) at Orleans in Newmarket. Every time I’ve played there it’s been full of people and they dig the music. This is a rarity for jazz of any kind in Toronto. Starry Nights uses a few different rhythm sections (they often work as a trio with just a bassist), I’m happy to say I’m their drummer-of-choice, and on Friday they had Mike Pelletier on bass, so it was great fun, and if I do say so myself, they lined themselves up with one hell of a rhythm section.
I’m not sure who is on bass next time, but it’s soon, Friday December 1st at Orleans again. See you there I hope…
