Mike has one public performance left before we leave for LA to attend the Grammys, and three more for the month of February. You may recall that he was a quarterfinalist in the Grammy "Music Educator" category this year, which was a huge honor. The fact that the Recording Academy has added this relatively new category shows their recognition and appreciation of what it takes to make it in the music industry as an educator. You have my permission to join me when it comes to "bragging rights" regarding the two-time Grammy nominated artist.
Having said that, I hope you will mark your calendars and come out this month to hear Mike perform. His schedule is becoming very full of private events which we are grateful for, but there is something extra-special about the intimate venues around town filled with close friends and true jazz fans like yourself. It is always a joy for us to see you (like at Stoney's and Perry's last month) and we appreciate your support. How lucky are we to live in a city like Dallas where we have so many great places to hear live jazz?
Wishing you a Happy Valentine's month full of love vibes!
