Come see Swami play jazz with Infinitude: Cafe Du Nord, San Francisco on April 2

Last winter (in what may have been a bout of insanity), I signed up for one of Blue Bear School of Music's great band workshops. I've never played in a band, and this seemed like a great opportunity to learn how to play with others.

I joined the Jazz Band Workshop as the keyboard player. It's been a great learning experience, with an awesome teacher (Jim Peterson, who plays with the band Mo'Fone). And we're playing a great set of songs, ranging from standards to swing classics to bebop and bossa nova.

It's 10 weeks of lessons, and the class ends with a performance where all Blue Bear's band workshops perform. Ours is on April 2nd at 7:30 PM at Cafe Du Nord in San Francisco. The band's called Infinitude. Hope you can make it! It'll be fun!

Here's the concert poster. Infinitude is on the bottom left.
