We are now booking and recording live club dates at the world famous Lighthouse Cafe in Hermosa Beach, California. The series is entitled "Sunday Afternoons At The Lighthouse Cafe" and features West Coast jazz artists.

We opened the series with The Jack Nimitz Quintet, followed by The Arno Marsh Quintet, The Bob Enevoldsen Quintet, The Med Flory Quintet, The Lennie Niehaus Octet, The Dave Pell Octet and The Jack Sheldon Quintet. The resulting CDs are now available.

Our latest scheduled event on September 23rd was a tribute to Carl Fontana with Andy Martin and Scott Whitfield leading a quintet including Christian Jacob, Trey Henry, and Ray Brinker.

Meanwhile, we are now producing DVDs of The Kenton Alumni Series shows, "Live At The Royal Palms Inn". There will be ten DVDs. The tenth being the last night when Conte joined Carl, Pete and Perk and is not part of the CD box set.

They are being released one at a time starting with The Buddy Childers - Jack Nimitz Quintet and then every other month or so thereafter. The second with The Bill Holman - Conte Candoli Quintet is now available. The next two releases will be Carl Fontana dates.

The running time will be approximately 2 1/2 hours and some will have rehearsal time as well. The shows consist of two sets and total fifteen tunes on average. This is great historical viewing.

That's it. Stay tuned.
