The 5th Annual Birthday Bash: Performing Paul Simon's Graceland Album and a Set of Original Music. 
January 19th.  Tickets on sale Saturday Nov 19th

Hello, that is me in the 8th grade.  I learned three songs in the jazz ensemble that year:  'Graceland' 'Under African Skies' and 'You Can Call Me Al' by Paul Simon.  12 years later, I learned another song.  Fellow songwriters and I got absurdly ambitious and learned "Diamonds On The Soles of Her Shoes" minutes before a show.  I'm not sure how we pulled it off, but it worked, really well! Drawing a bit of inspriration from Boulder based Rose Hill Drive (a great band who has done full albums tributes each year), I decided to include Paul SImon's Graceland album into this year's Birthday Bash! This is going to be a hell of a lot of fun!:)  I've been plotting and scheming arrangements for these songs for the past six months. Can't tell you how excited I am. Expect our own twists, many special guests, the full band and a set of original music! Tickets go on sale November 12th. I have very few limited pre-sale tickets left (NO FEES!).
