The midnight jam session at Smalls in the Village last night was hosted by the great Eric Wyatt and featured the venerable baritone saxophonist Dave Schumacher (òf Chicago origin and Harry Coninck fame) plus lots of way younger talent! #smallsjazzclub #ericwyatt #greenwichvillagenyc #jazz #nyc (at Smalls Jazz Club) https://www.instagram.com/p/CU2qm2gr1nG/?utm_medium=tumblr

A clip from the behind the scenes studio session promo video I shot of @wyatt.eric's new album being made. The album is a tribute to Sonny Rollins, his Godfather. In this clip he's recording with trombonist Clifton Anderson, who is Sonny's nephew. "Don't Stop The Carnival" is a pivotal Sonny Rollins composition. Recording this entire studio session was amazing!!! 12 extremely gifted musicians going to WORK!!! There are songs on the album also made to honor the late Roy Hargrove and Arthur Rhames..who Eric both knew and played with extensively. Full video is on Youtube. #Jazz #EricWyatt #SonnyRollins #CliftonAnderson #saxophone #trombone #calypso https://www.instagram.com/p/B2VFL74HDRB/?igshid=11t2zlu198641

Still wrapping my head around what I witnessed yesterday and through the night recording of @Wyatt.eric's studio session for his new project. A great deal of it is a tribute to Sonny Rollins and the late great Roy Hargrove. Many of the musicians who have played with them both were there playing on the recording. This is a video Eric did going around the studio...and this is not even all the players!! Some of the best jazz musicians in the industry!! Great to be a part of the session and document some of it on video. #EricWyatt #Jazz #Jazzmusicians #SonnyRollins #RoyHargrove #WillieJones #CliftonAnderson #RussellMalone #TylerMitchell #AnthonyWonsey #SullivanFortner #GivetonGelin #CharlesGoold https://www.instagram.com/p/Bvefr8aAMJU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1k19xbbgm5mkg

Big shout out to @wyatt.eric currently out in Italy performing all week. This behind the scenes promo video I did was used to promote his shows out there. Such an amazing musician. It was great to be a fly on the wall and document his studio session for his album "Look To The Sky". #EricWyatt #Jazz #Italy #MateraItaly #saxophonist https://www.instagram.com/p/BtB4h4BAIt0/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1wmo3j84cvoi4
