Hello from the band!
We have big news to share! June has been selected by the National Endowment of the Arts (NEA) as a "heritage fellow". Quoting from Wikipedia, " The National Heritage Fellowship is a lifetime honor presented to master folk and traditional artists by the National Endowment for the Arts. Similar to Japan's Living National Treasure award, the Fellowship is the United States government's highest honor in the folk and traditional arts."
June will travel to Washington DC in the fall, for the induction ceremonies.

The trio of Dan, June, and Kimo will be part of the Yosemite Jazz Train concert series, on September 29th. It's a great afternoon of music among friends, at the Lewis Creek Amphitheate. To get there, you'll ride a restored logging train.
This will be the trio's third consecutive year performing.
