We here at the Kora Band are very excited to announce that we have recently won “2010 NW Jazz Recording of the Year” at this year’s Earshot Jazz Golden Ear Awards in Seattle for our album “Cascades.”  We are very honored and would like to thank everyone involved in the production of this album as well as everyone at Earshot Jazz.

We have a number of regional shows coming up, just in time to celebrate!  We’ll be playing Wednesday the 30th at the Upstage in lovely Port Townsend, Thursday the 31st at Tula’s in Seattle, and the following Tuesday, April 5, at the excellent “Notes from the Underground” series at the Mission Theater in Portland, curated by local pianist and man-about-town Ben Darwish.  Details on these and other shows are all over at the “shows” page.

If you don’t have a copy of “Cascades,” you can pick one up at Amazon, iTunes, or from the OA2 Records site!  We’re quite proud of the album and hope you enjoy it as well.
