Getting Down To Business

Hello Everyone,

I want to share my weekend with you guys. Even though it rain for 48 hours straight, there was a sunny day in Baltimore this past Saturday. Maryanne Metheny-Katz, jazz vocalist of Jazzway 6004 concert venue, hosted a clinic "Succeeding in the Industry" by Magohany Jazz recording artist Kathy Kosin. The lecture was very, very informative and enlightening. How to get gigs. How to make a living being a performer. It's hard work. You're always searching, calling and performing. Your heart must be in it. Love and believe in yourself. This will keep on top. If you wish to learn more about Kathy Kosin's "Succeeding in the Industry", please visit her website at http://www.kathykosins.com/index.php And also, please visit Jazzway 6004 calendar for upcoming performances at http://www.jazzway6004.org/. There is a wonderful article written by David Dudley in The URBANITE http://www.urbanitebaltimore.com/includes/print.cfm?sectionID=4&IssueID=76&ArticleID=1316&print=1http://

Hello Again!

Hello Everyone,

Well I'm back on now. Once again, sorry for the delay. I've been pretty busy with performances and teaching. First, I would like to thank musicians: Aaron Graves, Steve Beskrone and Eddie Jones for performing with me at the 9th Pastoral Anniversary Celebration Jazz Brunch this past Saturday. It was fabulous. I would like to think Sister Terrie Fortune, Sister Cynthia Pryor(Mom) for the love and support; Deacon Woods and Deaconess Woods for their hospitality. Also the church members, what a great audience.

What's coming up!

Friday, October 9th, 7:30 PM at the Ice House Cafe in (760 Elden Street) Herndon, VA. Please come! It's gonna be fun with Paul Wingo, Steve Zerlin and Leland Nakamura on the stage with me.

I'm planning for more concerts and performances for the Washington, DC region. Please stay tune!
