Pro Players at Golden Age, 7/13/24
David Avery stopped by my Golden Age Brewing gig a few months ago, and I pulled up his song “She’s Mine” for everyone to hear. After introductions to Pete the owner, David had a commitment from the venue for a summer evening show. At the time, David didn’t actually have a band at the time, but he pulled together a special one called Pro Players for 7/13: Miekal Brown, Ublai Bey and others who go way back together. They came out the gate with Joe Bonamassa’s “John Henry,” and all took notice. It was a solid night. I hope they return soon.
The Soul Pod welcomes Chamber Music Pittsburgh
Martha Bonta of Chamber Music Pittsburgh met me at 8am sharp on 7/15 for our filming of The Soul Pod. We did downtown to West End Bridge to West End to Southside to Smithfield Bridge. Stay tuned for the final cut, which highlights Chamber Music Pittsburgh’s upcoming “Just Summer” series at The Highline.
A Summerstyle TSS
This weekend (7/20/24) on The Soul Show, let’s do an all-live set to celebrate summer. I know we’ve done sets and/or multiple sets within an episode, but this one is end to end after the Booker T. opening. I just finished the playlist. It should be pretty good. Broadcast times here.
