A few weeks back, I had the pleasure of recording the Erik Jekabson Quartet (with special guests) live at the Red Poppy Art House in San Francisco. The band knocked out some great tunes as expected and Erik was kind enough to let me share these photos, a short video of his solo on The Silver Fox, and two bonus audio tracks, of Five More Minutes and el Don, from the night’s performance. Also, if you have a high bandwidth connection, you can watch the high definition version of the video in full screen at ExposureRoom.com.

Wow, what can I say? Here’s another absolutely killin’ multimedia post from the local scene, The Nice Guy Trio live at Yoshi’s in San Francisco on November 2, 2009. They just put out their debut CD Here Comes… The Nice Guy Trio with the great guys over at Porto Franco Records. And with Darren’s go ahead, I’m happy to be able to post video, photography, and three live tracks – Apples, Amy’s Day, and Ducci Calypso – from the band’s stellar performance that night. So I hope you enjoy these tracks as much as I did, and please take this as a fine example of why you should be going out to see live music more often people!

I’m really excited to post this absolutely killin’ multimedia by The Supplicants getting crazy with the improvisation live at the Red Poppy Art House in San Francisco on November 6, 2009.

They don’t get together like this very often, especially with Sameer in NYC these days, so it was a real pleasure to hear them play in such a great intimate venue like the Poppy. Best of all, the guys were gracious enough to let me post all of the audio files from both sets (below), plus photos and a video I produced of the track Pavarti (above). Also, if you have a high bandwidth connection, you can watch the high definition version of the video in full screen at ExposureRoom.com.

So, have at it people, this one is not to be missed!
