20 Below in Minneapolis

Hi Peoples!!!It's freezing here in Mpls... I think I live in Siberia sometimes although I think it's colder here! But alas... It's time to hit the road! I'm on my way out to Cali to rehearse for the 2014 Smooth Jazz Cruise with David Sanborn, Marcus Miller and Brian Culbertson among plenty of other wonderful musicians. I look forward to seeing all the friends that I met last year and meeting new friends this year! This year the SJC has given me my own show on the ship! Ill be joined by David Sanborn and all sorts of musicians that will be walking through and sitting in. What a party that will be! Then right when we get home for the cruise, I'll be heading back out with Robben Ford for a month long run in Europe! We just finished a live record recorded in Nashville with some great new material that I'm sure everyone will dig. I always look forward to hangin with Robben, he's one of my all time favorite guitar players! We will be joined by Brian Allen on bass and Wes Little on Drums. Killin rhythm section. If any body is in the area of where we're playing in Europe, please come and say hi! Check the links to the dates and places. The music will be great and we'll all have a great time!
