So, the last gig of 2011 was at a hair salon. It was a cool hair salon, though. The first gig of 2012 will be in a... wait for it....
church. On a Sunday. During Vespers.
On Sunday, January 15, 4PM at St. Philip's Anglican Church,
25 St. Phillips Road, Etobicoke, Ontario.
For information, please call 416-247-5181. Pay What You Can.
Confused? Don't be. Vespers is the name given to evening reflective time. Literally, vesper is Latin for "evening." For some time now, Rev. Allan Budzin has been presenting some of Toronto's fine Jazz musicians in an hour of music and reflection.
The series is called The Jazz Vespers. With me, he's bending the jazz thing, I'll give you that.
You can expect 8 songs performed by Gary and I and an interactive chat— insightful maybe, playful definitely, and reverent assuredly— with Rev. Allan.
Hope to see you there.

A few images...
Updated December 31, 2011.
Here are a few images of places, people, and sight lines from over the last year. Many of the images were snapped by me, some by Salon hosts and the really obviously good ones by professionals.
In the next few days I'll post some credits and links.
Just wanted to thank everyone who came out to hear the music, everyone who hosted an evening, everyone I made music with, and everyone in my life that supports what I do.
Thank you all.
