Jazz Night

Last Saturday night my family along with some friends went to NYC to watch Hiromi Uehara at the Blue Note Jazz Club entitled Hiromi's Sonicbloom,
and
it
was

AWESOME!!!

The celebrated Blue Note is one of the world's most famous jazz nightclubs having held court for Dizzy Gillespie, Sarah Vaughan, Ray Charles, and recently hip-hop impresario Mos Def's pop excursions into jazz.

It's always fun to watch her because of her high energy. I love her cute facial expression when she's performing and she's always smiling. She's a jazz composer and pianist born in Hamamatsu, Japan.

Hiromi's Trio
Hiromi's trio initially consisted of bassist Mitch Cohn and drummer Dave DiCenso. In 2004, she recorded her second album Brain with fellow Berklee alums bassist Tony Grey and drummer Martin Valihora and has been recording and touring with them ever since.

Hiromi's Sonicbloom
On October 19, 2006, the trio added guitarist David Fiuczynski in a performance at the Jazz Factory in Louisville KY. He is also featured in the albums Time Control and Beyond Standard, and is currently touring with the group.

Hiromi plays the Yamaha C3 grand piano and the Nord Lead 2 keyboard.
