• FAN REVIEW // thickwitness
by theStarM posted Feb 22nd 2011 at 2:36amWe have wonderful fans from all walks of life that come to the Piano Bar to see me with the West Coast Get Down. Every now and again one of those appreciators use their skill set to do, say, or write something nice about us. Click “continue” to read an excerpt from the Thickwitness blog about WCGD…
The young men on stage are fully in it by 11. Cameron “Slot Machine” Graves defies the laws of dexterity on Piano. Tony “Two-Guns” Austin channels the spirit through percussion, and wears that on his face. Kamasi “Sensei” Washington is powerful in the candor of his expression on tenor Sax. (The date of this publication is his birthday, by the way). Usually standing left of Kamasi is Ryan Porter on his red trombone, fearless as ever. On vocals and upright bass-cum-electric guitar-cum-cello is the indomitable Miles “The Star M” Mosley.

It should be noted that the writer, Chinaka Hodge, is not only a wonderful writer and poet, but is also seriously dangerous with her wordplay on the microphone. As I round the bend on finishing ROAR you can bet she’ll be getting 32 bars on there somewhere.
Enjoy,
TheStarM
You already know I’d be more than humbled and honored and such. Proud to call myself a fan, living out the dream of being anywhere near ROAR.
Thanks for the love.
You already know.
