Just heard the great new album from the Gerald Wilson Orchestra, called In My Time. Gerald Wilson is a legend of jazz, performance, arranging and composing. At 88 he is still going strong and musically remains as innovative and relevant as ever.
You can hear a great interview with him on npr here.
RENMINBI the fabulous punk band from NYC have just announced details of their new drummer. Jim Archer will have the tough job of trying to 'fill the sticks' of Jenny Johnson. The band's search is finally over now and they've started playing and recording new tracks. They even hope to record a full album early next year!
Their first gig is Tuesday Sept 12th at Sonic Youth 25th Anniversary Tribute Show @ Mo Pitkin's in New York.
Congratulations to RENMINBI
