Crazy Sweater Party

Today we're kickin' it old school with some shots from a Crazy Sweater Party featuring Oso Closo (c.2006) Merry Christmas! (and a little rapping video featuring Colin)

Warning: Explicit lyrics and moderately funny



Ben Jackson and Baileys


Festivities!


Note the Miles Davis poster in the background. That's right, North Texas is a jazz school!


Chris McQueen takes it home.


Me & Colin

Chúc mừng năm mới!

Happy New Year!

It might seem a little late to be making this particular post, but I'm new to the blog scene and this time last year I was just barely waking from post-Christmas hibernation and jumping on a plane to New York City the IAJE conference - the biggest hang for Jazz musicians in the world. The UNT Jazz blog post of some of these shots can be found here and an extended album with some photos taken by me and Namhi Kim can be found here.
