Lessons from the Road

Well, I've been home for almost a week now from my "What's All That Jazz About?" east coast tour and, besides coming back in desperate need of some rest, I have also come back with some lessons from the road.

After much deliberation, I decided to look back at my last album, "Front and Center", for some ideas.Back in 2006, while I was recording "Front and Center", the whole idea was to basically introduce myself to the listeners. Additionally, I wanted to show my versatility as a musician, which is why there were such a…See More

I began performing music publicly in 1993, but became a full time musician in 2000.

Though my fan base primarily think of me as a jazz musician, I actually am very active in other scenes as a sideman and/or session musician for artists within the Neo-Soul, R&B, Blues, World Music, Adult Contemporary Rock, and Pop genres.

Musicians Shouldn't Get Paid

There's a phrase I hear a lot of. And, I've been hearing it long before the economy tanked. It goes something like this: "I love how you guys sound! I'm an organizer for (just fill in the blank here) and I would like to hire you to give a performance there. We don't have much money though."

Now, that is all well…

Dear Shenole,

´d really appreciate it if you could take the time to look at my work and leave your impressions here or in the guestbook on my homepage -http://www.miartemartagracielabressi.webs.com/- where there are more samples of my digital art works, engravings and sculptures. The web site´s in Spanish but, if you want to read the texts in English, you can access my Livejournal:

You can also visit the website we created with the Belgian jazz musician Dirk Schreurs to make our recent video art collaboration known to the world:
