So last night at the Midway Café, Tony Brown & his band (which includes me) celebrated the release of “Music for a Shrinking World”, and along with Keppie Coutts and another gentleman whose name I cannot recall at the moment, but both of them were great. Really randomly, Craig Brodhead, a guitarist who was in an ensemble class with me back in 2004, was accompanying Keppie, along with fantastic bassist named Jenny. Everyone really enjoyed the music, the intimacy of the Midway (it’s only about 20 or 30 feet from stage to bar) was great, and it marks the first time I’ve ever been called back to the stage for an encore by an audience. Really cool. Hopefully we’ll be doing lots more gigs like this with Tony! Here’s a favorite from that set:
