Help me cure those post-swing blues…

Posted on July 30, 2012 by

Greetings:

It was an amazing weekend at the Shalin Liu Performance Center in Rockport. The Cape Ann Big Band blew away the crowd during two sold-out shows with their energy and swing. It was a privilege to sing with them and share in that incredible energy.

So now, Monday morning, I’ve got to figure out a way to cure these dreadful withdrawal symptoms. I hope you can join me this Wednesday from 7-9 at Alchemy in Gloucester. Super fretmaster Flynn Cohen will be joining me, and I look forward to that.

Friday, it’s rock and roll at a private party on Eastern Point with Human Jukebox: Dave Koen, Kevin Levesque, myself and the inimitable Gordon Baird.

Saturday, I play two sets at 11am and 1pm with friend and fiddler Larry Young at the Manchester Public Library during (but not affiliated with) the Festival-by-the-Sea.

I’d love to see you!

John

About Joanne

I am a live music advocate and seek to share the news of bands playing at local venues in my home town. Being drawn to blues mostly but embrace all kinds of music. Funny most people say they do not like rap but I have heard some pretty good stuff from a local band called Da One 8 now know as The Dmus Sound Project. They are a class act. If you see a posting for them check them out and see for yourself. One does not have to go over the bridge to hear some real fine tunes, however there are some bands that draw you elsewhere. I hope this blog is a good use to you as it is to me. Enjoy, Joanne

    Loved the fabulous jazz with Cape Ann Big Band Sat. night at Shalin Liu. We have such talent here and now this new venue brings it to us right in town. Just one more reminder of the blessings of living here!

    I’m not sure who had more fun at the Cape Ann Band concerts on Friday and Saturday.
    I have a feeling you’ll be back again!
