So I got to work behind the computer and hunckered down to put more of my music online for you all to enjoy, share, comment, like etc.
I am booking live events for my band. That’s been going great!
The one and only Barbara Morrison (RIP) is the star of this video. We were very close & I loved being near her.
Always great to be with Albert Trepagnier Jr. from New Orleans on drums!!
From my CD Askew Too I’ve digitized my original song “Rain Dance” and given it a new use @YouTube.com/lesliebaker
Thanks to Kevin Rhoades @backrhoadesproductions.com for creating the concert event Leslie Baker Quartet at the Sherry in noho
With drummer extraordinaire, my soul brother Ken Park!!
To round out this post I’m including a video of another original song of mine. This one includes group vocals including my singing & bass playing. This is the one we can perform at live events….
Shaking off the dust somehow preparing for who knows what?!
Like I said, making gigs with talented people I like has so lifted my spirit.
My Hollywood Hang
“Don’t know what you got ’til it gone” Thankfully the school program sponsored by Los Angeles Jazz Society & others sailed once again in 2023 after a no go in 2021 & 2022.
Fun times in the music business.
Memories of NAMM show mostly right before Covid & the New Years Eve gig that took us into 2020
There’s a lot more going on. This is a taste. I’m feeling stronger, grateful, writing new original music, lots of exploring musical directions…& a bunch of real cool gigs!!
