Musicians We Love :: Franny Glass
I traveled to Montevideo for the first time several years ago for an informal arts exchange (mainly with hip-hop heads) and Gonzalo Deniz, aka Franny Glass, popped up in a MySpace search of Uruguayan artists. There wasn’t anything remotely hip-hop about his profile, but I wasn’t fazed. Franny Glass is a character in my favorite book, Franny and Zooey, by J.D. Salinger; I was confident he couldn’t suck.

Clubnights We Love :: Mark de Clive Lowe @ NuBlu
[MdCL] This is from our good friend Mark de Clive Lowe:
two of my favorite ever gigs in NYC were both at NUBLU. the first was with sammy figueroa (miles davis alum) on percussion and bembe segue on mic; the second was tawiah on mic and samuel torres (chick corea band) on percussion. it kind of reminds me a little of the jazz refreshed… night in london – the vibe is amazing and so perfect to explore music in. so… a little unexpectedly, i’m going to be hitting at NUBLU again for round #3 !
