Music Safari NYC, continued . . .
[Covers the week of January 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 & 7.]
On January 1, Neal and I got the best seats in the house for The Anderson Brothers' presentation of a few of Irving Berlin's greatest hits.
Tumblr media
That's Molly Ryan, Will Anderson and Peter Anderson. (Or maybe it's Molly, Peter and Will.) It wasn't too late to sing "White Christmas."
On Tuesday (Jan 2), it was Mona's.
Tumblr media
The house band was Jared Engel, Jon Thomas, Josh Dunn (back of head), Aurora, and Tomas Majcherski (not shown above, see below).
Tumblr media
A bunch of great musicians showed up for the second set.
Tumblr media
That's Jared Engel in the foreground, with Matt Munisteri, Aidan Grant (bartender extraordinaire), David Ostwald (if you squint), unknown and unknown looking on.
Tumblr media
Rafael Halvorson-Castillo and Neal Siegal were in for the night.
Jan 3 was a night off . . .
On Thursday, January 4, Paula and I had great seats at Dizzy's for the Mathis Picard Sound Orchestra.
Tumblr media
It was big, big sound - definitely one of the major highlights of this music safari.
Tumblr media
Mathis was joyful. He's been working hard on this, and it showed.
Tumblr media
At his last Dizzy's gig, Mathis got married in the middle of the set, right on stage!
After Mathis, I booked it down to the Village Vanguard to hear the Chris Potter trio.
Tumblr media
He's a great player, but I must confess that the jazz he played was too abstract for my taste.
On Friday, January 5, Neal and I headed over to Barbés to catch VickiKristinaBarcelona.
Tumblr media
VKB is a project by Mamie Minch, Rachelle Garniez and Amanda Homi that reimagines the songs of Tom Waits. I don't know as much as I should about Tom Waits, given how important he seems to be to musicians I admire, but I'm guessing the emphasis is on, "reimagine."
Tumblr media
In a set full of surprises, the most surprising performance of the evening involved Rachelle ringing tuned ceramic hand bells - precisely and skillfully - to play a melody.
Tumblr media
On Saturday, January 6, it was raining and the 1-2-3 subway was not running due to a derailment, so I opted to stay closer to home.
Tumblr media
Neal and I caught yet another set of "Miss Maybell and the Jazz Age Artistes," at the Motto Hotel (by Hilton) on 24th street. That's Charlie Judkins on the keys, Brian Nalepka on bass and Miss Maybell strummin on the old banjo.
Tumblr media
Margaret Batiuchok was dancing up a storm to Miss Maybell. She got this young dancer going . . . very charming!
Tumblr media
On Sunday, January 7, the usual crowd was at The Ear - and the more regular players in the Ear-Regulars. Maestro Kellso on trumpet, the beard of reeds-player Scott Robinson, Matt Munisteri on guitar extrordinaire, and Pat O'Leary on bass (see below).

Taking a peak from the top of Monas (Monumen Nasional). It had been over twelve years since I last did this, using the binoculars.

Music Safari NYC, March 2024
Tumblr media
If I'm in New York on Sunday night, chance are I'll be at the jam session at The Ear. So it was on Sunday, March 17, also known as St. Paddy's day. You can see how The Ear got its name - the back of the B wore off. It's existed like a couple hundred years, since it was right on the bank of the Hudson.
Tumblr media
The Ear-Regular band of the week was Martin Wind (bass), Chris Flory (guitar), Ricky Alexander (reeds) and Scott Robinson (everything else).
Tumblr media
Scott had this instrument, an octavin, a 19th century reed instrument. If multi-instrumentalism is viewed as a spectrum, Scott's way out in the barely-visible range.
Tumblr media
Mondays are bluegrass nights at Mona's. The band included unknown (help if anybody knows this guy), Chris Luckette (mandolin) and Rick Snell (guitar).
Tuesday, March 19 was especially hot at Mona's.
Tumblr media
The house band was Kerry Lewis, Jr. (bass), Brennen Ernst (piano), Dennis Lichtman (clarinet and saxes), Jay Rattman (clarinet and saxes), and Josh Dunn (guitar & banjo). The first tune was particularly energetic. It entered my ears the way water slides down a parched throat. I had a whole body yes-spasm.
Tumblr media
Josh Dunn's guitar playing was particularly energetic and creative. But then so were Dennis and Jay on reeds.
Tumblr media
Brennen Ernst had an acoustic surprise on almost every solo, and his comping was tasty and understated.
Tumblr media
By the middle of the second set, the house band had rotated out (except Brennen), and a whole new cast of musicians kept it rolling. This pic shows Brennen (piano), Unknown (banjo), Jen Hodge (bass), Unknown, but I've seen him before (trumpet) Charlie Roman (vocals, but then, later, guitar), Unknown, but I've seen him before (sax), and Ryan Weisheit (sax). Help me identify the musicians I don't know - email me at [email protected].
The night was particularly splendid, and the melody seemed to say that the music is here to stay, let's marvel while we may.
