Had a really fine show at Tillett Gardens on June 10th. It was recorded live and there will be a cd release party and concert at Yacht Haven Grande on August 8th with the same 7 piece jazz band playing from 7pm to 10pm. The septet is comprised of 2 teenage wonders on saxophone -Malachi Thomas and Jante Samuel, plus Dale Harrigan on trumpet, Abijah Hicks on guitar, Rhett Simmonds on bass viol,Louis Issac on drums, and myself on keyboard. The 2 teenagers are quite exceptional in that they are playing jazz of a sophisticated nature on a high level. The concept is called St.Thomas Jazz and consists of several well known “island favorites” plus some “jazz standards”.
