Bros before photos

Dueling Jazzbros? Many a video title went through my head while going through some of the Richards Bros photos. Individually, they are great musicians. Put them together and you have a dream alliance.

Being back in Texas is great. The food is mmmmmmm and the music is excellent. I'm doing a number of fashion and music shoots, and right in the middle of all the action so I'm posting a few shots that stood out. Up top is Joel Fountain, the originator of Sitmom Records.

Richards Bros Music

In a previous post, I quickly mentioned the awesomeness that is The Richards Brothers, as well as a small video slideshow collaboration I did with them. The Richards Brothers are Graham and Dave Richards, two very talented jazz musicians with an entrepreneurial mind to manage musicians and ensembles in Dallas / Fort Worth. Many of the musicians they work with are from the internationally acclaimed University of North Texas Jazz Studies and Music programs. Here's the video (kudos to Graham!), and links to many of the musicians appearing in it.
