For Lost Words


'For Lost Words" is a spoken word/jazz rock opera based on the Vietnam poetry of Yusef Komunyakaa, composed by Vince di Mura. I've seen this live twice. It's incredible. A beautiful blend of music, poetry and history. Only Vince could pull off something this deep and sensual.

All available to you via CD/downloads.

Day-Glo Halloween


Don McCloskey is throwing a day-glo Halloween party in Philly. Full band show at the Tin Angel! To quote the one and only Big D “If Kanye West's glow-in-the-dark tour were to get romantic with the mexican day of the dead, this party would be it's bastard love child. Skeletons, day-glo, pandas, glockenhorror, halloween night, etc."

No doubt this will sell out. Get yo' tix now.

Dre di Mura Rocks Out

14-year-old Dre di Mura rocks it out with his Pops. Check out his debut performance at Rhythms of the Night last week. In the words of Vince di Mura, "a little Stevie Wonder via Stevie Ray."
