HAPPY FATHER'S DAY
San Francisco Bay Area Friends,
Join us for three very special concert events this summer!
Tomorrow afternoon, June 16, it's a Father's Day Jazz Celebration at Piedmont Piano in Oakland. Next Friday, June 21, witness the world premiere of my latest composition, Sagebrush Rebellion, at Old First Concerts in San Francisco. Then on July 21, we will appear on the prestigious Jazz at the Chimes concert series with an all-star salute to The Great American Songbook.
These Northern California events are highlights of the Dmitri Matheny Group's 50-city tour of the western states, with concert and club appearances throughout the Pacific Northwest, Desert Southwest and California Coast.
See you there, and thank you for your continuing support.
~Dmitri
