I'm glad to announce the release of my third Carnatic saxophone CD: East Facing. I will definitely have another post where I will discuss the album in more detail, but for now I just want to announce this exciting release/benefit concert.

That's right, it is both a CD release, and a benefit concert for Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS). This is a very special event for so many people, me included, so if you will be in the Bay Area, or know anyone that will be, please spread the word and save the date! Buy advance tickets here.
