Some Jazz For Your Ears

Dave Palmer (1/3 of the Earl Harvin Trio) emailed a while back to let us know about some shows that are finally here (i.e., this week). Check ‘em out if you get a chance:

fred hamilton and i (two thirds of the ‘earl harvin trio) have put together a short run of quartet shows in texas feb 20-21. the band also features ephraim owens (one of austin’s best-known jazz musicians) on trumpet and rob avsharian on drums. i am coming out from LA to work in austin for a few days and thought it would be fun to book some shows. the gigs are as follows: wed the 20th; dan’s silverleaf in denton thur the 21st: club dada fri the 22nd: the elephant room in austin.

Palmer adds that the Dada show “will feature special guests from the dallas art/music scene.”

Speaking of music at Dada, check out local groovers Shibboleth this Thursday and next as they play some of their own tunes and then the music of Ennio Morricone (”and not just the spaghetti western stuff,” dapper Don Cento says). The band is putting finishing touches on a new album and there’s a new site too. Busy-busy bees.
