| Ed Battle unfortunately had to cancel his appearance this Wednesday at Dazzle. His mother, who is a remarkable 101 years old, is having health issues and Ed has gone to New Jersey to be with her. The band is still superb, so the show will go on! It will now be led by trumpeter Gabriel Mervine with an absolute powerhouse rhythm section of Paul Romaine, Ken Walker, and Eric Gunnison along for the ride. If you wish to help in Ed's time of need, we will be collecting donations that will be given to Ed's family to help offset some of his travel costs. |
