NEWS - I recently did a new solo recording at The Royal Room in Seattle. We are just starting to assemble the loose parts of production. I look forward to two trips in September, first the bay area and then a jazz festival in Toledo, Ohio. I have one Pink Door evening in Pike Place market in September and we have a new starting time. It is now 7-10. People who look for us should get there an hour earlier than before.

My wife Elsa Bouman is currently having a showing of her collage work at The Gallery at the Town Center in Lake Forest Park. Her artwork will be displayed until September 28 from noon to five, Wednesday through Sunday. She has created wonderful surrealistic images.
