Happy Hearts Day Vibes Friends!

This version of My Wild Irish Rose is inspired by pianist Keith Jarrett. I love how he subtly shifts keys on familiar tunes. This version is an example of playing a tune by ear and then looking for interesting ways to change keys. I decided not to improvise on this one — just played the melody in slightly different ways that seemed to fit each key. Every chorus is the same, yet slightly different each time.

New Trio Video

Hey Vibesworkshoppers!

Just put up a clip from a really fun trio gig I did here in NYC a few weeks back. I love playing vibes trio w just bass and drums and it was a treat to play with a really top rhythm section of Clarence Penn and Joe Martin.
Thanks for listening!
