Thanks to all who came out to see the trio at Rosie O'Grady's! Sound was tough, but fans stuck it out through the noise. Certainly won't play without monitors again...
Played in the Joshua Taylor Trio format for the Port of San Diego's Mile of Music today. Outdoors unplugged (completely), windy, intermittent rain, but the show went on and people still came out to hear! What a great city! Thanks to family, friends, and fans who huddled in close to hear us, and thanks to the Port of San Diego for having us.
First gig with the Joshua Taylor Trio format was held at a private party at Yanni's Bistro in Poway, CA.
Percussion: Jeff Gaylor
Guitar: Conrad Bauer
Gig: Sweet
Thanks to Denise and Yanni Pihas for having us, and thanks for your hospitality!
First night working with drummer Jeff Gaylor, who held the rhythm down on cajon at a round-robin style show with Kurt Porter and Deno Marquee. Glad to have Jeff on board for future projects. Thanks to all those in attendance, and thanks to Lestat's for hosting!
Had a great time with Mary Dolan at the Lestat's show on the 8th... thanks once again to Mary and to everyone who came out to listen! Here are a few pics from the night...
I hope everyone had a great holiday season!
