Stephen has pretty much talked me into billing our new project "Jim Vick and Friends" because neither of us wants to rule out the likelihood of at least temporary expansion and flexibility in our numbers before long. This project is bringing something very different to Puerto Viejo that we are hoping will attract some great visiting and resident players to come sit in with us frequently, the way the house band at the old Loco Natural did for so many years. In the meantime, the two of us are setting out to present a full band sound between us, incorporating electronic drums, keyboard and organ pedal bass, Hammond organ, and of course lots of guitar sounds - looping everything live as we play. The repertoire is also in revision and will feature more funk, rock, R&B, and world fusion, along with our favorite covers from my solo sets, and of course lots of originals. Come check it out!
