Looking forward to this special night.  I will be volunteering all night at the door.  Would love to see you there.  -Keiko

this is the reminder for an amazing night of Jazz this FRIDAY at Taix Restaurant,

named after the great musician and friend Christopher Spilsbury who needs your help
after a car accident that cost him an eye and 3 surgeries.
it’ll feature some of the most talented names in Jazz, such as Otmaro Ruiz, Joe LaBarbera, Frank Macchia
and also the special performance by Daren Burns’ Onibaba. 

your donation of $20 or more at Tophest2011.com or at the door will get admission to the concert,
complete with full restaurant service from Taix’s amazing array of french cuisine and a full bar.
all the donation goes directly to Chris and his family, so we encourage you to donate even when you cannot attend
we all know that things can get tough and there’s nothing like having your friends to help you

Great news!  Shin’s solo album has been nominated for an Independent Music Award (best album: eclectic category).  He is an absolutely amazing musician and literally my favorite person in the world!  It thrills me that people are getting a chance to listen to this CD.  If you haven’t gotten a chance to yet, check out the full album here.   You can vote for him at the Independent Music Award site.  They are not announcing the winners until July, so there’s still time.  Thanks!

Welcome!

Hope you enjoy our new site.  There will be updates and pictures galore!  (o.k. “galore” might be overselling it… but there will be more)
