Nice to blast off with these fellas @nick_mazzarella Tim Stine & Matt Ulery, and get into the spirit, at Fred Anderson Park Monday night. Thanks to @lewisachenbach Birdhouse and @ChiJazzFest for putting it all together. Also huge thanks to my dear sister Thalia for the video!

We were stoked for another KVL sonic exploration at Easy Does It but our brother in jawms, @dvduerm, got a case of Covid. In lieu of cancelling, @KohlSlaugh and I will be joined by the singular LeRoy Bach this THU AUG 17 at 9PM. Come hear the all-improvised debut of the KBL trio!

It is @Bandcamp Friday. Buying a $20 album nets the equivalent of 6,666 Sp*tify streams or 33,333 Y*utube plays. Support independent music. quinkirchner.bandcamp.com

In 2018, on Sun Ra’s birthday, I was inspired to write a song for him. It eventually came together through group experimentation in the studio during the sessions for The Shadows and The Light. It turned out great, have a listen. Sunny Herman Poole Blount 5/22/1914 - 5/30/1993
