Meet the Brainchildren: Dan Schlessinger

January 24th, 2012 | No Comments

Dan Schlessinger and I met in the winter of 2001, and have been musical colleagues and friends ever since! He’s a fantastic musician and a super-smart guy, so he’s a lot of fun to be around!

He moved to San Francisco a few years ago to add electrical engineering and microphone design to his resume (he now works for Sennheiser), so we don’t get to play as often. But I just couldn’t imagine “Eye for an Eye” without him on soprano saxophone, and asked him to add his two cents from afar. Check it out!

His great new album, “Sailors Gone” (under the name Dan Moses), features me on trombone and backing vocals. Listen to “Bold, Bold Step” for a great introduction. If you’re in the San Francisco area, catch Dan! Here he is this past weekend at the NAMM conference with Kay Ashley (left) and Kate Kilbane, also great musicians and songwriters.

I was asked to do a guest post for the Ardent Records blog about the first record I loved…. read it and let me know what you think! What was an important album for you as a young person?

Nice Way to End 2011

December 29th, 2011 | No Comments

2011 has been an eventful and exciting year for me, and I got a very nice review yesterday to round it out!

Some highlights: “Both as a singer and on trombone, Elizabeth! brings a quiet intensity to her performance….She and her band go more for texture than improvisational fancies, making this a good album for people who are just discovering jazz. For the rest of us, Brainchildren is the work of a subtle artist backed by a responsive and talented band.”

Thank you!

And thanks to you for reading, listening, reaching out, telling your friends… all year long. May you be healthy and happy in 2012!
