An actual gig? Yes, it's true!

Two weeks from tonight, Let's see, that would be...November 10 at 6 p.m., we’ll be doing a kind of a performance, a jazz vespers, at the Northridge United Methodist Church at 9650 Reseda Blvd., Northridge, CA . 

What is a jazz vespers? Beats me, but we’re doing it. We’ll be playing some nice tunes for about an hour, and if you’re in the neighborhood, we’d love to have you drop by. 

When I say “we,” I mean the musicians who are taking part in this: Alan Lindgren—we were the dueling keyboards in the Neil Diamond band for forty years; Larry Brown—composer, engineer, drummer, producer, and the guy with whom Alan and I did those “Joy Circuit” albums a couple of decades aog; Larry Klimas—the saxophonist with our touring band for 20 years or so, who took over the role of Neil’s duet partner on “You Don’t Bring Me Flowers” to much acclaim on our last tour; Bill Cinque, our band’s bassist on that final tour; and Julia Waters—who, with the Waters family, has probably sung on every record imaginable. 

The program will be brief and it’s free, so if you don’t like it you will already will have your money back. Come see us if you can.
