Keep an eye out for a guy named Jim Hoke. He is a well known session guy, but he does sit in with all kinds of bands. The guy is a multi-instrumental genius- horn player (who sat in with a swing band at Robert’s Western World to play Ellington), recorded with Paul McCartney and an almost endless list of other big names. He’s local and a killer player (taught himself pedal steel). Guarantee that whoever he is playing with is gonna be good. And say hello for me. (He’s buds with the Straightjackets guys too- who always crack me up).
