Tonight: feels like we're here every Friday, but haven't caught Oscar Noriega at Barbes for 2 months. Cozy af.

Made my move to leave at the break and then I saw Chris Potter walk in with his horn (bass clarinet!) and thought maybe I should, uh, stay.

Then up to Union Pool. Packed house already, only midway through opening set by the wonderful folky af Murphy Beds.

Like hot apple cider on a frigid evening, Andrew Marlin String Band sounding sweet, spicy and plenty warm going down. Killer instrumental bluegrass for a tight sold out Union Pool.

Cool to see Stephanie Coleman sitting in with both bands tonight. Seen her a bunch, but only in duo with Nora Brown, so enjoyed seeing her get some love from other great musicians and she sounded great. Everyone did! Great show.
