My videogram "Classic Jazz Medley - Gabriel Mark Hasselbach" is baked!

Hello Lovely Listeners!

I re-edited a video sampler from the autumn Blue Frog concert I played with Miles Black, Cory Weeds, Nino DiPasquale, and Tim Stacey... it came out pretty nice!

I also uploaded video to Videogram where it was converted into an interactive comic.

New Single #1 Most Added on Billboard!

The award winning keyboard whiz, Greg Manning, who was featured on my Open Invitation album, has released his new single Sugar and Spice, which immediately tied at #1 on Billboard’s Most Added. Sirius XM Watercolors added it immediately, which is usually is a tough sell :-)

I am proud to have been part of this project, creating the brass section on this track Sugar and Spice, playing trumpets and trombone, as well as being featured soloist on another track, hopefully the second single 🎺🎶.

Check out his album coming out soon..


Throwback Thursday - Maui Music Memories

By golly, it is Throwback Thursday, and it appears it has come full circle!

I have just been invited to perform at the Sixth Annual Maui Jazz and Blues Festival Sept 10!

The video below is from a prior concert in Maui in about 2002, where I got to perform with George Benson

And in about 2000 I recorded a CD and filmed Live On Maui, which was shot by Jazz Alley TV for BET, and shown in 41 countries.

This September I will be part of an ABC TV special, and it will be good to get back to the Islands!

The shank of the week!

OK, last night was beyond all expectations!
The Fairview was packed and the manager said sales were up 30%, partly due to the authentic New Orleans style music, and partly due to the featured dinner special which (was Jambalaya of course), plus the authentic featured NOLA cocktails like the Sazerac and the Ramos Gin Fizz....
The crowd danced and we laid down a solid New Orleans street party vibe (I had my new Yellowjacket trumpet, too)! 
This Mardi Gras Night happens at 7 pm EVERY THURSDAY at the Fairview, 898 West Broadway.... FYI, the Fairview has been Vancouver's hotbed of Jazz and Blues for 25 years, and is still going strong, so c'mon down- very casual attire and crowd!

SATURDAY NIGHT I am back at my homebase Ten Ten Tapas, where there is consistent ebullience and joi de vivre! The food is EXCELLENT (created by award winning executive Chef Paul), the patio is open all day and was named Top 5 in Vancouver, and I try to keep the music on par with the other great components! (FYI, by all accounts I am succeeding... starting at 7 pm).
 
It is easy to get to Ten Ten Tapas: It's on the seawall at 1010 Beach Ave (just under the Burrard Bridge), and parking is free! Just drive down the lane next to the 1000 Beach highrise, and park in the parkade in the white 'restaurant spots'. Here is what the parkade entrance actually looks like: https://goo.gl/maps/RE51n7ZpvFT2   .... Rezzies recommended 604-689-7800. Don't forget Sunday--- Mother's Day Brunch at TenTen, with live classical music and a great menu just for Mother!

If you enjoy the West End experience, drop into The Sylvia Hotel on Wednesday next week (May 11). I start at 8 pm and the view behind me is a pristine panorama of English Bay. I play in their great lounge- iconic as a matter of fact! See you there!

Followed, of course on Thursday with the Fairview NOLA Experience yet again!
