Vibraphone

Guys, this was recorded from a concert we did in Gloucester, MA this past Friday. The band features Matt Marvuglio on flute, Nori Shiota on bass and Jazz Robertson on drums. Nori and Jazz are Berklee students and Matt is the Dean of the Performance Division. The idea was to get a group together featuring faculty and students. Matt called me to see if I would be interested and I said sure. It was for a great cause. The concert was the first concert of a 10 concert series in Gloucester that is raising money for a scholarship fund at the school. We had a fun night with a sold out crowd.

Been using the malletkat for a new project of mine. Here's a short clip from a new tune entitled "Cogs."
This music will be recorded soon and the CD should be out by the end of the year. I'm running the Kat through a Nord Electro rack module, in case anyone was wondering...

Just blowin' on a blues of mine entitled "Hemming and Hawing"
This is from a gig I did out in LA a couple years ago.

Wow. I just got the new malletKat and have been playing it. I think Mario did it with this one. He's changed the feel of the instrument and put in Kurtzweil sounds. It's pretty amazing.

I was always a MalletKat fan, but thought of it as an addition to the vibes. I could go out with a band and play on only this and all would be good. The experience was incredible.

I'm thinking about recording some quick improvs to let you guys hear what you can do with this!

Just thought I'd post this.

Simple ideas that will help keep the harmony moving.
