Lotus Festival this Week End! Leslie Baker and Friends perform Sunday 1:30 PM
If you want to see us, don’t be late….it’s a short set. We are surrounded by dancers.
Saturday from 6-9 PM I return to play in Lisa Casalino’s Jazz Band on the Westside, at the Grove near Nordstrom
So we’re hot! I’m doing what I can to not get bothered…..Full moon, Solstice, Fire’s, Father’s Day. Summer events and performances are rolling along.
Here’s what Father’s Day looked like for me as I enjoyed being the bass player for the Dale Fielder Quartet at Whisky Red’s Marina Del Rey, CA
The Band Plays on the Patio, Bass and Drums under a Gazebo
On this very hot day the ocean breeze made things nice.
This coming Saturday, 6/27/16 I will be with Lisa Casalino’s Band at the Grove, 3rd and Fairfax in front of Nordstrom from 6-9 An evening of fun, free for the public performance. It is always nice to see friends and fans at these shows.
We had a great time with Lisa and the band was definitely cooking with Ark Sano on keyboard and Dustin Haner on drums!!

This Sunday May 15 at 2 pm come enjoy a free concert by the
Crown City Symphony in Pasadena!
I am feeling like this will be a very good year. Care to join me?
With the new year comes another chance to give grammar school concerts all over L.A. that teach about Jazz. I am very happy to once again participate in this program with bandleader Dr. Bobby Rodriguez and his very talented band. If you would like to observe a concert, contact me at bakerbass@mac.com to arrange for a guest pass.
Hi All,
Day after Thanksgiving it’ll be a good idea to do some movin’ and shakin’
A couple of days before Christmas the band played Jazz/Blues at The Lighthouse in Hermosa Beach
Like Wagman says: “it doesn’t make sense, but blues makes you happy” and with Bobby’s all star band, we are having some fun. So blues lovers, music lovers, check us out at the Seabird Jazz Lounge at Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffles in Long Beach. If getting to Long Beach is out of the ordinary for you, here’s a chance to spread your chicken wings and discover a vibrant music scene. We have several dates (check the calendar) coming up starting with Friday November 6. We play from 9 pm to 1 am. In the meantime here’s a bit of our rendition of Chicken Shack:
