Chris Clark will be our call in guest this week and we thrilled. We will be playing tracks from his new CD "CEDAR WISELY"
Jazz runs through the veins of this musician, which really shows when he is playing a saxaphone or behind a piano. Chris grew up in Davis, developing his talent in Davis High. he went on to earn his B.M. in Jazz Studies from the University of Oregon and his M.M. in Jazz and Improvisational Music from the University of Nevada, Reno. Currently he resides in Boston and performs on the east coast. Listen in for an in depth interview along with playing a few tracks from his CD and some music that has influenced him.
Chris can be followed on his web site http://cclarkmusic.com
