Tri-Fi On Tour!
Western Michigan
Scott hired me and my TRI-FI band-mates to be the rhythm section on his new album of original music. Also on the recording with us is Chicago saxophonist, John Wojciechowski (damn is he good – check out his recent recording!). A few of the charts are for octet and things get kinda crazy. This should be fun!
