"The shows will be mostly music with a little conversation," says Mike Greensill. "I'm always interested in the "back story" of people's lives and so, along with the thrill of making music with these wonderful musicians, I decided to sit down and have a conversation with them. A brief chat into their influences, their musical upbringing plus any gossip that I can wring out of them! We're going to plop this little dialogue into the middle of a 1½ hour set of swinging mainstream jazz."
