B3 Conspiracy is the band I work with. Bill Callanan on B3, Thom Pastor on tenor, Paul Testa on drums and myself on guitar. We play almost every weekend at one of four clubs in town. We did our Fourth Sunday gig at the E String yesterday and it went really well for the first visit at this venue. Please comment if you would like some information.

Why not put on a showcase somewhere (any members have a club?) with the members from this group. We can perform shorts sets so that everyone can put there best foot forward...etc

Hi comrades just thought I'd let you know we started out the year with a wonderful jump start. We were touring Sri Lanka and India for three weeks.It was truly a great way to start 2010.
I'm now back at Harrahs in the Range Steakhouse every Thursday, Friday and Saturday 5PM to 10PM, come by and say hello

Have to thank Mike "Gooch" I would not have heard Nathan Tanouye and his music were it not for his Murphy's Pub big band nites. Nathan and I have worked together for 4 yrs now putting out 2 CDs featuring big band versions of Russ Freeman's
bebop tunes. Thanks more than you know. Carolyn F.

One of the greatest helps to my father when he played in Vegas for over 15 years was a gentleman named Steve Beyer. A very nice, smart, and professional man, I am sure that if you look him up and tell him that you heard about his agency from Tim Ballard's daughter, Kathryn, he might be able to help with bookings. I know that times are tough in Vegas right now, but it's worth a shot. This is his agency's website: http://www.stevebeyerproductions.com/
Yours,
Kathryn @ TIMKAT
The Jazz Network is exactly what the title suggests, a place where you get to mix and mingle with those who have not only an appreciation for Jazz but a forum to hear new up and coming artists as well. I've hooked up with so many of my old friends that I've lost contact with over the years here and it's been a great place to meet folk, appreciate good music and Musicianship. What an incredible idea!!

Pat Metheny And John Zorn: A Vivid Sound World
The two artists are known opposites in the world of instrumental music. On Metheny's latest, the jazz guitarist wrings an unexpectedly visual listening experience from Zorn's knotty compositions.Sarah Vaughan: A New Box Set Revels In Glorious Imperfections
Divine: The Jazz Albums, 1954-1958 packs four CDs with Vaughan's music, recorded live or in the studio with bands big and small. Two live albums from Chicago nightclubs are standouts, partly when a performance threatens to slide off the rails.Rudresh Mahanthappa On Piano Jazz
Mahanthappa brings an explosive blend of jazz and South Indian classical music to the studio.Grady Tate On Piano Jazz
Grady Tate began his jazz career as a much-celebrated drummer, backing such icons as Wes Montgomery, Ella Fitzgerald, and Quincy Jones. Tate has since traded in his skins for a microphone at center stage, where he delivers smooth and soulful baritone vocals. With pianist John di Martino, Tate sings "Everybody Loves My Baby" and "Where Do You Start."Woody Herman At 100: 'A Blues Player From His Heart'
He was a soulful reedman, an amazing talent scout for decades and a bandleader of one of the country's most popular acts. Born in 1913, Herman led "Thundering Herds" that were both big draws and well-respected by the likes of Igor Stravinsky. Here are five recordings which still sound fresh today.© 2013 Created by Jaijai Jackson.
