Bill Evans Soulgrass Special Edition
(Click photos to enlarge in a new window)

This past January 23-28, Dave joined the great saxophone player Bill Evans at the Blue Note in New York City for a special version of his Soulgrass group - called Soulgrass Special Edition.

Joining Evans on sax were: Sam Bush (mandolin), Richard Bona (bass), Tony Trischka (banjo), Christian Howes (fiddle), and Dave.

The band sounded amazing and played to sold out crowds every night. Click here to read an article about the band on AllAboutJazz.com. Click here to listen to a clip of Dave soloing during "Celtic Junction."
