Well, this was it- the last chance to polish up our songs before the Freedom Jazz Festival performance on August 1.
The band lineup will include Annie Favors, Toria Hart and Dick Jacques (vocals); Sam Fiske (trumpet); Wes Simmons (tenor sax); Matt Riley (flute); Ira Adleman (alto sax); Todd (trumpet); Tim Stevens (bass); Gene Eagen (drums and percussion); Martin Stovall (percussion and drums); Craig Thorpe (guitar); Christian Lamot (piano) and Tim McNamara (guitar). Maybe we should call ourselves the "McRae Park Medium Band."
The FJF schedule has us on stage from 1:50-2:20 PM. The set list is:
Introduction of the Workshop and the band by Annie Favors
"Four Brothers" arranged by Christian Lamot (instrumental)
"I'll Remember April" sung by Toria Hart
"Feelin' Good" sung by Annie Favors
"Have You Met Miss Jones" sung by Dick Jacques
"In Memory of Elizabeth Reed" arranged by Tim McNamara (instrumental)
"Centerpiece" sung by Annie Favors and Dick Jacques
So there it is (or more accurately, there it will be): the result of a couple of months of hard work developing and honing the songs and arrangements. We hope that people enjoy it!
