about

This recording captured the first time this band played together. I sent the musicians charts and recordings of a few of the tunes before hand, and we rehearsed at the Hillside Club the afternoon of the gig. After a dinner break, we performed the concert. Having master percussionist and bandleader John Santos share the stage with us added a whole new dimension to the music, and the combination of a new band, new music, and the positive vibe inside the stately old Berkeley landmark packed with an enthusiastic audience really brought the music to life that night. We had no plan of releasing the recording as a CD, but after listening to it many times, I felt that it captured the live spirit and spontaneity of an inspired performance. I'm proud to be able to share it with a wider audience. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed playing it! - Erik Jekabson, El Cerrito, CA February 2014
