Nice article on the cover of the All About Jazz website regarding the making of the Mary Joyce album I cowrote with Claire Daly.
It really gets into the nitty-gritty process of making the album.

What a year
Thank you everyone for making 2011 such a great year!
We charted new ground musically, and reached new friends in Europe and the US, all with your help….we drove through the night to reach friends in Virginia in which I gained a new appreciation for caffeine and that yes googlemaps may not be that accurate, but it is pretty accurate. We shared some magical moments with you in concert, times when folks danced in the back, and hilarious moments (Martin’s electric toothbrush). 2012 will bring new musical projects, recordings, interesting blogs, interviews, videos and a whole a lot more. see ya in the new year!

jazztimes review
Hey gang,
The December issue of Jazztimes has a nice review of the album, “Mary Joyce Project: Nothing to Lose, which I cowrote and played piano on with saxophonist Claire Daly. Here’s a bit,
“On this beautifully realized album, Daly captures Joyce’s adventurous spirit, determination, and love of her surroundings while radiating similar qualities herself… it’s unusual storyline and supplemental effects make it unique.”
good times
The crew had a blast in brooklyn (thank you Helen!) last Friday.
It was great meeting new friends after the show. Plus it was cool to debut new music…….playing new music is like a first date and test driving a car with no cops around, all in one.
More in a bit,
S
