The Organic Trio made a return to the Bop Stop on Friday.  It was big fun for sure.  Thanks to Clif Metcalf and Larry Barris for making it a serious hang.  Finally, I got Larry to Cleveland!  Thankful for a great crowd.  Looking to bring these guys to Columbus hopefully later this summer and then return to Cliff Bells in the fall.

Looking forward to returning to Filament in Columbus for a special performance featuring the Bob Niederriter Trio with me on drums and Tony Monaco on B3 organ.  My buddy Gerard Cox has been putting on some great shows at his space. Bob and I appeared with organist Jon Eshelman under my name last July at Filament.  Also, look for my Organic Trio with Clif Metcalf and Larry Barris to return to Filament this summer as well!

WRAPPING UP THE SEASON AT NELSON LEDGES

0 Comments

Yesterday I worked with  Bob Niederriter on the final gig of the season at Nelson Ledges.  We fortunately had the great Jon Eshelman playing B3 organ with us.  Despite the chilly temperatures, we heated things up on stage.  I love working with this trio as we always inspire each other and genuinely enjoy each others company.  This summer I was blessed to work with Bob at NL for some great sets including one with my brother Tony Monaco!  Yesterday, I also had a chance to try out my new kit from Inde Drums.  Josh Allen custom makes the drums out of Kalamazoo and uses some very interesting design elements and philosophies.  Still tweaking, but they are sounding good.

A BANNER JULY!

Wow, July was jam packed with many gigs.  I had a blast getting to showcase Derek DiCenzo and Clif Metcalf at the Bop Stop. My buddy Gerard Cox also invited me down to Columbus to feature my trio with Bob Niederriter and Jon Eshelman at his new music space, Filament.  We had a great time!  Our buddy Tony Monaco dropped by to catch a few numbers and sat in with us as well.  Then, the following week I had the pleasure of working with Bob and Tony at the Hollywood Casino in Columbus for a private event.  Another chance for me to hone my skills with some very talented cats!
