On Friday, June 19, 2015 Jazz in Durham, NC was alive and well. The BEYU was swinging with Kevin Van Zant. Kevin was on guitar, Steve Riley on tenor sax, Mark Wells on organ, Tyler Leak on drums. They started the 8pm set by honoring my request for "I'll Remember April". That was great, and things just got better as the set moved on. Thank you gentlemen.
Over at Alley 26 a full buzzing house was being treated to Andrew Berinson on piano and Shaquim Muldrow on tenor saxophone. These two play together often and they sound good working with each other. It was good to be able to give you guys a listen. "Where you at next?"
I know there were sounds going on at Sharp 9 and Cuban Revolution. I couldn't get to all of them, but it is great just to know they were available. A healthy jazz scene in Durham, NC. WELL ALRIGHT!! EF2 is approaching.
Prayers and condolences to the people in Charleston, SC.
