Big Noise...From Planet Earth
Jazz and Broadway drummer Rich Rosenzweig combines in-depth interviews with the some of the best freelance musicians in New York City and across the country, and pairs the discussion with his special challenge: each guest must lay down their own improvised tracks over previously recorded drum vignettes created by Rich. No other rules, no boundaries- the sky’s the limit. What follows is a fascinating compare-and-contrast of creative minds. That, along with some illuminating and at times hysterical discussion of the lives and careers of some of the best guns-for-hire in the professional world of music. Season One: Bassists/Duets Season Two: NEW!-Various Instrumentalists/Trios

Escaping out her bedroom window to play jazz with the adults...
Mary Ann came a long way from her buttoned-down childhood in Santa Cruz, breaking out as a teen asked to sit in with dozens of major jazz artists, to becoming a major sought-after NYC bassist and music educator. She discusses navigating the “new normal”, after the abrupt halt of her current Broadway show, Bob Dylan’s “Girl From The North Country”.
