    Lilypad

    Inman Square Cambridge.   $15 suggested donation.  

    Most of you already know what a remarkable place the Lilypad is.  A resource where creative musicians of all types play, with a good piano and a clear sound in the room.  And when the Lilypad hosts 30 people, it seems quite full.  But no matter the number, the experience of the music always so intimate and direct from both the stage and the seats.  We feel you up there on the stand with us.

    First WEDNESDAY – every month – 

    I’ll be playing with..

    Rick Dimuzio – tenor saxophone

    Sean Farias – upright bass

    Dor Herskovits – drums
