August 1, 2014 — Volume 85
Greetings, Flugelfans! We're thrilled to announce that Sagebrush Rebellion, our new album, will be officially released August 9 to iTunes, CD Baby, Amazon, radio and retail on the Papillon Recordings/Blueport Jazz label. The album (my tenth as leader) features a terrific west coast rhythm section—Nick Manson, Justin Grinnell and Duncan Moore—and a great mix of music, including new originals, classics by Johnny Burke and Duke Ellington, and favorite songs by Charlie Haden, Steve Swallow and Nat Adderley. We're staging CD Release Celebration shows from Los Angeles to New York and all around the country. We hope you can join us for one of these exciting events. Order yours here. Just ahead:
