55 Taylor Street SFPlaying a super-stripped down drum kit in Dan Plonsey’s New Hells Ensemble, part of Lisa Mezzacappa’s Best Coast Jazz Composers series. I’m subbing for the slated percussionist Wade Spangler, and considering it divine intervention. With the strings (Masha Albrecht, Sarah Willner) and piano (Lynn Murdock), clarinets & saxophones Randy McKean), banjo & reong & keyboard & fiddle, and a long song with lyrics by Mantra Plonsey sung by her.
