    These musicians just GET IT | Nov. 12, 2024

    In this spontaneous 15-minute hang I talk about a unique weekend involving Jacob Chung, a wonderful young saxophonist who came out to play in BC for the first time. Jacob brought his band of Tyler Henderson on piano, Caleb Tobocman on bass, and Hank Allen-Barfield on drums. The quartet came through Frankie's Jazz Club for two unforgettable nights, among other shows. We also recorded the piano trio (featuring Jacob as guest) for Cellar Music. They just get it. I also discuss Eric Reed, the great pianist who played the SOLO Sundays series at Pyatt Hall. Eric is such a real, thoughtful person and I'm proud to call him a friend. He has lived the life and is unapologetic about how he shares his experiences through his music and stories. It's not all heavy though.. I also have some funny moments to share about how the young cats told me in no uncertain terms that I'm old now! RIP Lou Donaldson.

    Alto saxophonist Mike DiRubbo is coming to town to play with a Vancouver quartet at Frankie's! Mike (who joins at 01:50) is a soft-spoken, phenomenal musician.

I brought him to Vancouver in past years to play with Larry Willis, Harold Mabern, and Steve Davis. We talk about his studies with JMac in a formative time, we continue to remember Jim Rotondi, and we enjoy a brief hang. Mike DiRubbo plays with Tilden Webb on piano, David Caballero on bass, and Jesse Cahill on drums this Friday, July 26th and Saturday, July 27th. This is Frankie's Backstage: Tune in as Frankie's artistic director, Cory Weeds, sits down with upcoming performers to discuss their journeys & their music. Get to know some of the performers who will be gracing our stage at Vancouver, BC's premier jazz club. This episode originally aired on Instagram @frankiesjazz on July 23, 2024.

    New York with Weeds stories (get on board for 2025)

    I'm talking New York With Weeds 2025 (March 16-23, 2025), the next edition of my annual trip to the Big Apple, because you can get $100 off registration for the trip until July 30th! Learn more about it here on my website coryweeds.com. In this spontaneous 15-minute hang I got into some New York with Weeds stories from past years' trips, including: getting banned (sort of?) from the Village Vanguard, discovering amazing musicians I'd never heard of at the time, hearing Kurt Elling and Harold Mabern, having meet-and-greets with Wynton Marsalis, a moment with George Coleman at Bohemia, and more. Held in March every year, New York With Weeds leaves no jazz stone unturned in NYC. We visit the hot spots, the lesser known spots, and the stellar spots in between. The tour includes private/exclusive recording sessions with New York’s top musicians, private/exclusive performances at some of the city’s most renowned clubs, and roundtable discussions with some of the international jazz scene’s biggest movers and shakers. You can expect about 20-25 people on the trip, and you don't need to be a hardcore jazz fan. Nor do you need to fly out of Vancouver like me! This episode originally aired on Instagram @coryweeds on July 18, 2024. Intro: "Reach Out (I'll Be There)" from Reach Out! by Hank Mobley.
