- Surrealestate: improvisation collective. Playing twice in October under the direction of Cristian Amigo, once in the World Festival of Sacred Music and once at CSUDH.
- Bruce Friedman Edgy Quintet: with Rich West, Motoko Honda, and Eric KM Clark. Playing ResBox August 18, Bruce and Motoko have a CD called Edge Study with liner notes by Christian Wolff. We may be playing Wolff's "Edges" on this gig.
- Charles Sharp Group: with Anthony Shadduck, Andrew Lessman, and special guests. Playing mostly Charles' originals, which often have me and Anthony playing in different keys and meters. A really interesting two-bass free jazz band. Playing the Open Gate series in Eagle Rock Sept. 3 and somewhere in San Francisco Sept. 11, both sharing the bill with Rent Romus' Lords of Outland + Vinny Golia.
- Ben Rosenbloom trio: with Alan Cook. Playing at the Battery Books & Music June 26. A piano trio which covers a lot of stylistic ground, from Iyer-ish odd meter vamps to Paul Bley free ballads.
Bands without pending shows:
- MESTO
- Scrappers
- Rich West's Homunculus/Confabulators
- Zebra Logic
- Four on a Hill
- Scott Heustis Group
