New Horizons

by Administrator on October 27, 2011

istock8_mic2011 marks a new path for LuLu’s Ascent. Our last show at Oasis in New Paltz brought in a new player for a couple of songs, JWhy, of Beacon, NY. He is a multi-instrumentalist/composer/producer who sat in on an impromptu jam as well as an extended version of The Light. He played bass clarinet and ‘blew’ the room away. We had a chance to chat a few days later and found we have a mutual admiration, to say the least, for Charlie Mingus.

I look forward to the possibilities of working more with J and other players that compliment the explorations of this new phase. Steve, Tom & I have spent time reworking and rearranging the established material as well as adding a couple of new songs. We’re ready for anything. Our focus now is on expansion, of the songs, ourselves and our reach into the creative/world community. Fasten your seatbelts, it’s gonna be a great ride…xo lulu
