I had a nice quartet gig last night in Buckhead, an annual event for Children's Healthcare. I think this my tenth or eleventh year in a row doing the event (which has been the same format every year)--I've got it figured out! For this one, I used Louis Heriveaux on keyboard, Kevin Smith on bass, and Mark Raudabaugh on drums. Since I rarely do a jazz gig these days, it was nice to hang out of with some of my friends in the scene. The four of us had a wonderful time. It was a good combination.
I really enjoyed this one. Maybe I've been starving for a gig with a lot of blowing, but everything felt especially great. The gig ended before I'd gotten sick of hearing myself!
