First attempt at creating a chord melody. Tried to use as much rootless voicing as I could. Any comments & criticism gladly accepted.
Sending a shout out to all vibes players who live in the New York Metro area. I'm having a CD release show for my new album on June 5th and would like to offer a free CD to anyone from the site who can make it. Just mention that you heard about it through vibes workshop and there will be one with your name on it at the door.

Hey VW,
I had some GoPro footage from a gig that I wanted to share, as it shows some of the midi sounds and fx I am working on... I've had a bunch of questions about that, which I haven't really gotten to. Hope to share more when I can.
Cheers,
Steve
Hello,
Sometimes I practice solo vibraphone outside of a tune or a form. That way I can practice comping melodies without worrying if its the wrong chord or melody. I think this is an interesting way to work on things.
thanks!

I'm working on a travel grant application (through the Canada Council for the Arts), so that I can attend the Delaware workshop this summer. The application required three recent recordings, so it was a great opportunity to get into the studio and put something together, which I have been meaning to do for a while since I started playing vibes. I'm a student at the University of Arizona, and there is a studio in the music building, which worked out well. The three tunes are "How Deep is the Ocean?", "Darn that Dream", and "Kind Folk".
Quality entertainment ! Music starts at 3:00
Hi All,
This June marks the beginning of the fifth year of Good Vibes. Hard to believe. I'll be playing a set of three Milt Jackson recordings, and continue to explore newer CDs: Red Norvo's Four Classic Albums, Steve Shapiro's Low Standards, Hendrik Meurkens Mundell's Moods with Chuck Redd on drums and Dave Stryker's new Eight Track with Stefon Harris on vibes. I'll be playing some classics and some new compositions, Vigorous Vibes and Organic Vibes. Come listen.
