Australian Tour

[isaacs]

My new CD Keeping the Standards will be released in a few days on Vorticity Music. It was recorded live at The Basement with the New York rhythm section of Jay Anderson (bass) and Adam Nussbaum (drums). To celebrate the release I will be doing an Australian tour in February/March with my new Sydney-based trio with Ben Waples (bass) and Felix Bloxsom (drums). As the name would imply, the Keeping the Standards CD & tour presents a repertoire interpreting the jazz standards tradition.

Below are the tour dates - I hope you can make one or more of these performances! Since most of the people here are Melbournites please note the CD launch at Bennetts Tues Feb 17.

Best wishes

Mark Isaacs what is this coming to Melbourne for five minutes crapola?

You are unfair on your pals

- but hey, dig this quote:

"Mark Isaacs is too good for Bennetts Lane - the sort of work that he does deserves a concert hall, in my opinion!" Anonymous Melbourne jazzster.

So there - I wish you were coming for longer so you could hang with me and the Italian Maestro for even one amazing meal. Hmm maybe next time.

ciao babe
