Edward Simon Notes and video: "Pere"

I'm happy to share many exciting events taking place during December. First off is a west coast tour with  Steel House, a new collaborative trio with my long-time friends Scott Colley and Brian Blade. The tour will take us to many great cities including Portland, Los Angeles, Santa Cruz and San Francisco (see the full schedule below). At the conclusion of the tour we will be going into the studio to record our first album. Stay tuned for more information about that in the coming months.
