Quote:"Take The A Train", performed by Casey Abrams in the keyboard, Taylor Tesler in the guitar, and Jacob Scesney in the Alto Sax.
This is a casual jam for fun at my home (any home.) What I loved of it is that you don't need any big apparatus to share and enjoy the fun of music. The love for music and the joy is contagious! -Thank you guys.
Recorded with a cell phone on the late morning of October 7, 2014.

It is a casual jam, but it's great that these 3 can, to quote Casey, "enjoy the fun (and the love and the joy) of music" in such a spontaneous fashion. I miss being around people where those occasions could happen. (I find that it's not particularly effective on my own.)
Ironically, when I woke this morning I was thinking about a PMJ version of A Train. I quickly decided that would not be a good idea, since the premise of PMJ is to put a different spin on a song -- usually a current song with a vintage take. Since A Train is vintage, then he'd be left with what -- giving it a contemporary touch? That doesn't seem like a good approach. When something is perfection to begin with: Leave. It. Alone.
It's been maybe about 2 years ago that I learned how close the public came to never hearing that song. We need to be grateful for the astuteness and resourcefulness of Duke Ellington's son.

I have got to believe Casey and Haley are writing music in the UK. I doubt Anders just flew to England to catch the PMJ show to see Haley.

I spent today getting a full on tour of #AbbyRoadStudios with the lovely @andersgrahn What a surprise… https://instagram.com/p/0qnv8SAulc/
Quote:Anders Grahn is a gold and platinum awarded songwriter / producer from Malmö, Sweden. Now based in London. http://swansfieldmusic.com/artist/anders-grahn/
Casey said he would be doing some writing, but I think they are each doing their own thing.

Casey retweeted this interview w/ Taylor (DJ/Host is irritating but listen for Taylor's content)
https://soundcloud.com/artsynow/54-how-to-shred-guitars-and
Quote:Here are the highlights of my funky conversation with Taylor:
09:43 : Being born with music in his soul, playing guitar since he was 10, loving the violin on his 4th grade, and about their gigs and tours so far,
15:05 : His prime influencers in music,
21:28 : How he met Casey, hitting it off with him immediately and their explosive first show together,
24:16 : How taking a chance and being open to opportunities, even if it’s not ideal, took him to where he is today,
25:53 : Recording songs with his brother, who is from upstate New York, and the endless possibilities of creating music and art despite the distance,
29:19 : Being well-rooted and in touch with reality, living in the moment in everything that he does, and how this all helps in his creativity and the quality of his life, and
41:12 : What he feels is the best part of music and the euphoric feelings it brings.

Anders is based in the UK, didn't have to fly over.
It's why I asked him months ago if he'd be seeing Haley and PMJ when they came to London

@HaleysTusk @HaleyReinhart @PMJofficial Wouldn't miss it for the world.

Casey said he'd be doing some writing in England, didn't mention with whom, but in Harry's recent email to me:
Quote:She and Anders wrote some nice stuff in London the last week. She and Casey came up with another one too

Blast! Hope they will add some extra openings. While it seems like an "odd couple," both are so talented, I can't imagine that something cool will happen.
