Events & Appearances
We are looking forward to a REALLY excellent night!! February 25 6-9 PM It is always a great pleasure to share the stage with Farko and D’Vonne, and the pleasure will be compounded by the appearance of Paul Nelson reading from his new book, Haibun de la Serna. He will have copies available onsite. Kezira…
WooHoo! With Osama Afifi on bass and Jacques Willis on drums! Two super happy and wildly talented guys! This makes me feel lucky! I believe this will be the first time the three of us have played together, although both Osama and Jacques have been on the gig many, many times. No cover, full bar,…
This was a lot of fun! Free improv! Whee!! THANK YOU, Greg, for joining us!
Wow! This will be the first time Farko, D’Vonne, and I have played together since 2018! I’m expecting magic. Trio jazz, African/Latin music with flute, bass, and drums. Excellent music, excellent food, full bar, and a warm and welcoming atmosphere, courtesy of Nigist! As usual all ages, no cover. I’ll also be playing Kezira February…

WooHoo!! More fun with Dean Schmidt on bass and Jacques Willis on drums! It was revelatory for me when we played together in mid-October, as we had not played together since April 2019-and that gig was so darn cold my flute was almost 1/2 step flat. I said to Dean on the first tune “Hey…
I’m really looking forward to this! It will be the first gig with Farko in over a year and a half (for the obvious reason); and the first time EVER that I will have the pleasure of playing with both Farko and Jacques together! Come on by-we’ll be playing some new material, and some tunes…
I’ll be back with the superb rhythm section of Osama Afifi on bass and D’Vonne Lewis on drums; and some new material. We had a great time last week with Dean and Jacques Willis; and the wildly talented Greg Bem sitting in on poetry. Apologies, the picture shows Dean Schmidt… We’ll be playing jazz trio…
We’ll be back at Kezira with more of the really, really fun things we do-some African, Latin, Hip Hop, Straight Ahead, Blues, and even some pop- – but always walking that tightrope! Come down, see what happens! Be sure to avail yourself of the full bar and great Ethiopian/Eritrean menu. It has been too long…

I was happily surprised that we didn’t drift back into greater restrictions in large parts of Washington state this week. Not to cast aspersions, but “many thanks” to the people who are not receiving vaccinations, and masking and distancing appropriately. This could have been in our rearview mirror by now. And, yeah, I know, there…
I am delighted to have a song included on this recent release from Salsaneo records. A book will be published in the near future about Northwest Salsa from its beginnings to the present. I am honored to be included in the recording and in the book!
James Pelletier maintains, pads, adjusts, and overhauls my instruments. He worked with Alex Eppler for decades, and is obsessively dedicated to returning an instrument to its owner in perfect playing condition! You can reach James through the Eppler Flutes website.
I have been fortunate to be able to find some beautiful instruments with which to develop a relationship. It took time, persistence, and luck! Currently, my C flute is a Flutemakers’ Guild inline open hole B foot silver flute which was made about 1982. I use a cocus wood headjoint made by the incredibly talented…
