Nich Anderson is opening up his condo to 30 guests each night for a house concert series that starts tonight with a performance by MaxxJazz recording artist John Proulx. For more information and to reserve tickets, visit http://jazzvox.com.
Says Nich Anderson: I heard John last year for the first time and was amazed by his many talents – an equally great pianist and vocalist, a wonderful scatter, and a great writer of tunes (featured on albums by Nancy Wilson and Mary Stallings). I’m thrilled that John will be the artist to kick-off the series! Check out his debut album “Moon and Sand” on his website(http://www.johnproulx.com>) and visit his myspace page (http://www.myspace.com/johnmproulx)
