There is a slight change for this Thursday's Bernie Petteway Trio performance at the General Store Cafe in Pittsboro. Due to a recent death in his family Bernie's taking a much needed break this week and jazz pianist/vocalist Steve Wing will be taking his place playing with me and Ed Butler. If you haven't heard Steve you're missing a big treat. He comes out of the New Orleans tradition and was heavily influenced by the Triangle's Brother Yusef. He brings great energy and enthusiasm to the music and is always great fun to play with. I'm sure we can get him to sing some of the late Bus Brown's songbook so be sure to come out for that.
