Hope everyone had outstanding holidays and that the new year is off to a roaring start. I can honestly say I've never looked forward
to a new year more than this year. I have a feeling 2008 is going
to be fantastic!
Thank you to everyone for the kind words and good
vibes about our newest release, Absolute Trombone
II. The response has been overwhelming! Again, a special thanks
to all the great players who gave their amazing talents to the project.
The past few months have been busy ones here in New York. Playing on
David Sanborn's new CD was a highlight, as was working with JayZ on
one of his tracks for the movie/CD American Gangster. I was pleased
to be able to perform at the Dakota Jazz Club in Minneapolis in November
and also give a masterclass at the University of Minnesota while I
was in town. Both experiences were terrific.
The new year is off and running for both myself and Hip-Bone
Music. I'll keep you posted with upcoming projects as things develop.
In the meantime, here's some of what I'll be up to in the coming months.
All the best!
Michael
