10/4/24 First Fridays Jazz Night w/JL & Friends — The Finale

First Fridays Jazz Night Finale Flyer

Join us for our final show at Lyd & Mo’s. Mo is closing his doors after 10 years in Playhouse Village. I’m super sad about it. But we’re going to have a great night to celebrate it, with Danette Christine & Friends — who played our very first show nearly two years ago — and Jami Lula — who reunited his 90s band Lula for a show in our first year, joined me a couple times, and sang for the Christmas show — will be debuting new music during our final night at this place that has felt like a home for so many of us. I’ll do a set, of course, and I hope to have some other surprises for you, too. I’ve got no word on where I might take this series going forward, if it is to continue. So I want to thank you all so much for supporting us for the past 21 months. It has been a joy to commune with you all!

10/21/24 Sideman gig with Zoe Fitzgerald Carter, Los Angeles

Zoe’s a friend who lives up in Northern California and has a great new album called, “Before the Machine.” I’m excited to play guitar for her for the second time this year at Hotel. We’re also going to be doing some recording at my studio while she’s in town!

Her music is in the Americana realm…with some soulful swamp. She started her career as an acclaimed journalist and memoirist, so her writing is beautifully textured. And I get to amplify that with some textured electric guitar. It’s really fun to play with her!

10/26/24 Full Set @ Hotel Cafe, Los Angeles

I’m playing my first ever set under my name at Hotel Cafe, believe it or not. I’m joining Feef Mooney’s record release event on Saturday, 10/26, at 10:30pm. It’s at a rock ‘n’ roll time on Saturday night in Hollywood. The Hotel Cafe is one of the premier singer-songwriter venues in Los Angeles. Feef is an energetic ball of positive light whom I met doing the Nilsson tribute shows over the past couple of years. And she’s got a crack band including Chris Price and Fernando Perdomo (guys who play with some of your favorite power pop artists and more) collaborating with her that night. And I’m stoked to be part of the party doing a full set at Feef’s request.
