Posted this with Clayton Cameron one year ago in a literal green room before a show 🎻🤎 So grateful for the interesting experience I had reading your comments and welcoming many people to the land of jazz violin 😌🌎 Sink or swing! 😉🥁

One of my concerts last year 😉🎻 youtu.be/hmmDfoHbaBE?... #jazzsky

For those who may find this interesting, it is Django playing violin on this recording. Many people assume it’s Stephane, but if you listen carefully you will perhaps hear this in a new way. Enjoy 😌🎻 #jazzsky #jazzhistory

Happy memory from the US tour with Jon Batiste, our Willy Wonka of music & my longtime friend. This was in my home town of all places, Madison Wisconsin 🎻🎹 #jonbatiste #jazzsky

🤎

People ask me what Jon is “really like,” and this interview is one of the clearest and most authentic representations of that in recent memory. It was an honor to play with him on the Big Money Tour & to play on his album of the same title — now Grammy nominated. 😇👀 tinyurl.com/y2k3kja4 #jonbatiste

Miles Jensen here always inspiring me with his ideas!!!!! Thanks to Elizabeth Ibarra for the artwork behind us 🖼️😋 and Izaak Weatherwax on brushes of course!!!! 🥁 #jazzsky #violinsky #artgallery #happyjazz

Often I hear comments that young people have no talent, work ethic, sense of history, and lack patience. I hear that we don’t play “real” music anymore and don’t value quality. Here are my recordings. Most of the musicians on them are young people too. You decide 😇🎻 open.spotify.com/artist/1bIMv...

Who knows this rather rare song? Also my shoes match the artworks today haha 💚 Thank you Miles Jensen #artsky #musicsky #jazzhistorysky

I’m glad you dropped in to enjoy! Your videos are a hot jazz treat. 👌🏽

This is one of the best statements I've seen on properly phrased skeets. I reposted it. My grooves today are going to be exclusively YOUR WORK. I am calling it NORA GERMAIN JAZZ DAY.

Given the rise of authoritarianism and AI together, facts are now more important than ever. I know we all want to have a change in leadership but let us not become blinded by memes, satisfying disinformation, rumor or our own echo chambers. Please post vetted sources, just as we ask others to do. 👍🏼

Have violin, will swing!!!! So grateful to have special friends to play with 😌🎻
