Hi All,
Thanks Again to Cindy Scott and Brian Seeger. Great folks playing wonderful music. I promised I would have them back for asparagus season next yer. I guess that's not something they have in New Orleans.

This week we are looking forward to the yearly visit from saxophonist and flutist Mark Lewis. Mark's career started in Washington state, moved to Rotterdam, Holland for many years, then to the San Francisco Bay Area, where he worked with many of my old friends and now back to Seattle. Throughout that time he has written over 700 tunes and played and recorded with hundreds of musicians. Mark loves life and music and is the most positive cat I've ever met and it comes out beautifully in his playing and his compositions. Please join us on Tuesday and stick around for the jam session that immediately follows the concert set. http://marklewismusic.com/bio/

Hi All, It's been over a year since we last featured the great jazz bassoonist Michael Rabinowitz as our guest soloist. You will not only dig his unique sound but his approach to improvisation as well;  it's fresh, fluid, explosive and full of surprises and, always swinging. Here is an excerpt from his bio: Whether blowing bebop over a Mingus tune or freely improvising with Anthony Braxton, Michael Rabinowitz's contributions have changed the conception of what the bassoon can do.  He has recorded with Ira Sullivan, Red Rodney, Wynton Marsalis, John Hicks, Dave Douglas, Chris Potter and Joe Lovano.

While she learned to sew on her mother's old sewing machine, that wasn't the thing that propelled her into costume design.
