Music Notes – October 2012

THIS MONTH: Look for new MUSICMAKER features on Woodstock, NY-based guitarist Jesse Gress and singer-songwriter Danny O’Keefe – two extremely gifted musicians. Jesse has toured and recorded with Todd Rundgren for years and is also a member of the Grammy nominated Tony Levin Band. Danny is a well respected songwriter who has “flown under the radar” for years.

STUDIO JAMS MUSIC CLUB: There’s more interesting stuff in the Music club this month…starting with a terrific MUSICLAB segment with slide guitar master Sonny Landreth. Watch as he demonstrates and talks about his extraordinary technique, with our host, bassist Gerald Veasley. As usual, there is another complete episode of Studio Jams to enjoy – this time it’s Episode #4, with guitarist Stanley Jordan, bassist Victor Wooten, saxophonist Jeff Coffin, drummer Roy “Futureman” Wooten and pianist Bill Jolly. Plus, two more free unreleased Studio Jams “Bonus Tracks” for you to download. Pretty cool.
