#1 in Bako! Thanks for the Boost

Hi Folks:

I've made it to Number 1 on the ReverbNation R&B/Soul charts for Bakersfield, CA. http://www.reverbnation.com/SaxAssured

To update you: Through March my next few Sax Gigs are at private events. I will be posting my public appearances as I receive all the specifics. On the Tunesmith front, I'm currently working on three horn arrangement commissions.

It feels nice to have my efforts recognized.

Thank you so much for your support,
