We are back in Paris after a two week mini-tour in California and New Mexico. We had a great time visiting with friends, catching up and enjoying some very good meals. Leslie and I dropped in on Ron Kobayashi’s Friday night jam session in…

This summer has been flying by.  It is hard to believe it is already August.  A year ago we were living in a short term rental near Bastille hunting for both an apartment and work.  We had just gotten confirmation that we had indeed been…

Chers Amis, 

Things are becoming crazy busy right now.  I look at our schedule and it never looks that busy in terms of scheduled rehearsals, lessons and gigs.  But the day starts and promo material needs to be emailed, material for gigs has to be prepared, a student comes over for a lesson here and there and somehow the day is gone and I am always amazed at how much is still on the “to do” list.

Chers Amis, 

Welcome to our new "blog".  Thank you to everyone who replied to my request to review the revamped “Surf Cove Jazz” website.  www.surfcovejazz.com   I have added French language pages where possible and added French language text to the appropriate (I hope) pages.  Looking at Google Analytics we are getting  about three quarters of our web traffic from France, specifically Paris. Which makes sense.

We finally had a few beautiful spring days.  Some of you know…
