"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
So! This actually happened a bit ago, but well, stuff happened, and some of you already know, but still. Anyway! I'm proud to announce my first mini-album has been released! It's a three song EP. I do blues/jazz covers of "Hanging Tree" from Hunger Games, Pink Floyd's "Have a Cigar," and my own original, "Sleepin' In." (spoiler alert - it's not about sleeping!) Head over to [link] to take a listen, and throw me a couple bucks if you want to download the tracks!
I was fortunate to have some excellent musicians work with me on this project, including Berklee grad Dr. Keith Cochrane on trumpet & bass, my former intern (yes, that one) on drums, and an amazing Honduran pianist, Mauricio Espinal. Plus, production courtesy my superb SO. It was a goofy little project that started out as a joke, but I'm proud of the work, and would love to hear what you guys think of it!
It's also available for sale on iTunes etc., for more info, hit my new website: sumiko.org

As today is the first day of Spring, I want to wish everyone a NoRouz Mobarak - Happy Persian New Year. I love this day, a fresh start in so many ways. One of the Persian New Year traditions is to go visiting friends and family. While I can't visit each of you in person - if I could, I would.
This is one of my favorite holidays in that it crosses all religion, it celebrates rebirth and renewal, and it literally means New Day.
