Mattock School of Music

Dave will be playing solo piano at the Gables at Chadds Ford on September 20th from 6-9pm. Great food, great drinks, great atmosphere, and of course great music. Hope to see you there!

After that's over, Dave with then be headed down to Wilmington to play at the Nomad Jazz Bar with his group the Tap Room Trio. 9:45-12:45. The Nomad is a great beer bar with a fantastic atmosphere, and the trio is Dave's favorite musical outlet, so be sure not to miss this one!

I've been meaning to put up a link to this article for some time now. One of the really important albums in jazz history turned 50 this summer and this is a great write up about one of the more fascinating pieces of music that I have ever heard. A great read, and if you've got the time and focus, a great listen. Enjoy!

We are very thankful to our good friend Josh Orlando for his recent donation of a beautiful new drum set to the school. Josh is one of the most amazing musicians we have ever had the pleasure of working with, as well as one of the most generous people we know. Please take a second to check out his website here and hopefully find an opportunity to go hear him play in person, it's a truly amazing experience. Thanks again Josh!
