Finding 15 musicians for a last minute gig

We have a last minute gig next Tuesday for a private event and I'm going crazy! Most of the band is out of town so I'm trying to make this work with new musicians. Fortunately enough there are always great musicians in the city who want to play new music but man is this labour of love! I already found 13 of them....2 more to go.

We are playing in SOB's in July!

Remember how a few weeks ago I posted a video outside of SOB's saying how exited I was because I had just ran into the person who does the booking? Well its official: Gregorio Uribe Big Band is playing at SOB's on July 25th!!!
It makes you feel like everything can happen with a little perseverence, right?

I'll keep you posted with more info about other shows before that as well. The next one is on Saturday May 29th at Fat Cat (Greenwhich Village).

La Promesa - Live @ Iridium

Here is a video from the show we did a few weeks ago at Iridium Jazz Club in NYC. This is a song I wrote about one day going back to Colombia and contributing whatever I can to make it a better place. Enjoy!
