COMING NEXT FRIDAY - The 2007 Ballard Jazz Walk, Celebrating 10 years of Origin Records! This year, the Walk presents the most venues ever, with 16 Origin groups in 11 venues around Seattle's historic Ballard Avenue- all for one extremely low cover. Besides the usual host of Seattle greats such as Greta Matassa, Richard Cole, Hadley Caliman, Thomas Marriott, Sonando & Randy Halberstadt, guitarist John McLean will be visiting from Chicago, saxophonist Brent Jensen from Idaho, and the Upper Left Trio will be up from Portland, all in support of their recent releases. Check out the festival website (http://www.ballardjazzfestival.com) for the complete artist line-up, schedule, and to buy (discounted) advance tickets. See you there!
