Good Manners Live with Shenole Latimer

We had a reunion of sorts with Shenole Latimer this past Saturday at the New Smyrna Beach Library - part of his Southeast tour. Great to see him and play again, especially on his new compositions. It's been 2+ years since we played last, but it felt like there was no gap at all! Thanks to Gloria Mariash for the video! - KM

Chinny Chin Chin (live)

One of the radio favorites from the "There You Are" cd. We were playing at La Crepe en Haut in Ormond Beach - where we now play the first Friday of every month. This was a very interesting evening...Scott did not have this date in his book (oops!) so I gave the gig to Marc Koblick on trumpet, who happened to be there. Scott then surprised us by showing up with Gloria his wife, and his drums! - that last set was so nice. I wish our version of Cal Tjader's "Curacao" was recorded, it was entirely groovin'! This one is pretty happenin' as well. Marc is hidden from view in all the footage, but he is most likely playing what he refers to as his "main instrument" - the cabasa! lol

Thanks to Gloria for filming! Hope you enjoy & thanks for stopping by - KM

Here's a pic taken at our gig at European Street Café last month by Cameron Kline of Killer Photography. Cameron took a bunch of pictures - some of them will be up on the pics page soon. I like this shot - there's a lot to look at.

I've been meaning to do this for some time - marry this set of photos by my friend Saori Kurioka to music from the show they were taken at. Saori was never happy with these pictures, there were difficulties with the giant mirror behind us, but I think the music brings the pictures to life. And what a gig it was! Nathan and Lieven were my favorite rhythm section at that time - and you can hear how they inspire me on this recording.


Thanks for stopping by! Lord bless - KM
