I have been honored to be on the advisory board of Jazz Bridge for the past 6 months, and we have finally established their youtube non-profit channel. Here is a clip from a recent benefit:
Jazz Bridge is currently embroiled in Charlie Rice's legal battle. and is asking for the financial support of jazz fans everywhere to help clear his name. The legal fees to defend the 88 year-old jazz legend are estimated to sail into 6 figures. Click here to contribute.
And my newest board appointment is to the Philadelphia Jazz Heritage Project, spawned by University of the Arts professors Vic Shermer, Rick Lawn and Don Glanden. The goal is to compile an archive of all past and present Philly-area jazz legends, so the continued video documentation of the local jazz scene is assured.
