Success at The Brick

Best performance to date included 3 hours of music, a variety of featured talents, blend of standards with funk, and musician solo's. Fantastic turnout for public debut, it just couldn't have been better. Particularly when the establishment gives an invite BACK!

2. Black Dog Coffee House (Lenexa) - Saturday night, Sept 17th - SEE CALENDAR for details

Cherry Pink @ The Brick

The 3-hour gig was a smashing success to a sold out venue. This tune features Ben Forshee on trumpet and Miranda Stark on Sax.

TOC now linked to Kansas City PlaxticSax website

We are not sure how this happened, but grateful for the recognition of A Touch of Color on the Kansas City website PLASTIC SAX hyperlink section, "Artist Links". This link provides broad public exposure to the jazzonourown blogspot, updates, gigs, and calendar information.

Take a look! You will find A Touch of Color listed with all the jazz artists in KC! http://plasticsax.blogspot.com/

Looking forward to a fantastic performance at THE BRICK tomorrow, 5-8!
