Duo

After a three decade friendship, two San Francisco Bay Area musicians decided to form a DUO devoted to their own compositions and individual arrangements of standards. Their debut cd, LOVE YA, MEAN IT!, was released in December 2007. A series of public performances in clubs, festivals, and other venues is planned for 2008.
