Musicians — with a variety of styles I respect a great deal
Neil Shah — After mastering the piano, Neil figured out early the power of simplicity and beauty. Listen to his passionate voice and poignant, yet hopeful songs here.
Chris Baker — A phenomenal alto saxophonist, Chris will electrify the bandstand with a great time feel and highly creative and intriguing lines. He is also a great bass fisherman.
Moppa Elliott — Moppa is the leader of the most hilarious jazz quartet in the world. Check out his self-destructive dada-jazz quartet as they simultaneously genuflect to the masters and take their knees out.
Brian Woestehoff — Sonny's humor, with Trane's articulation, and Turner's altissimo; that's Brian.
John Swana — Jazz trumpet just doesn't get any better. Period.
David Liebman — Jazz's future is led by Master Lieb. Check out the power of my mentor's extraordinary music here!
Chris Farr — Chris was a very important and inspirational early teacher for me. He has essentially mastered traditional bebop on the tenor saxophone.
Christian Pincock — A great improviser, from eloquent, tasteful, and/or explosive computer music to remarkable valve trombone.
Hotcup Records — Check out this label's highly creative music lead by Moppa Elliott's "Mostly Other People do the Killing", and Nathan Kuruna's annual "Yulenog" Christmas album collaborations! The Language Of's first CD "It Needs It" is also on this label!
