My new favorite band, straight out of Bremen, where they practice in a Cold War-era bunker. Their bassist Ilko says: “In the bunker, there is no reception, no internet; there is only guitars and drums.” modesaison.bandcamp.com/album/catwalk

My supporters on Patreon get an early-release track today, a tune I first wrote for the WWU Freshman Jazz Ensemble 20-some years ago. When Mike said he wanted to Wes Montgomery-style groove, I knew I had just the tune for it! Enjoy the track, and thanks for listening www.patreon.com/c/daventilli...
