For September and October the poet is off on two poem journeys; poems, titled Yellowstone, and the second titled, Youngstown now. Final research for these poems is go there and experience both places. Both trips are so invigorating and inspiring. All along, PoeJazz heads down the final stretch of production of our long anticipated third CD, A Breath Away from Heaven; All is well, but the final paperwork assignments, which we're knocking away in between these two journeys.
 
We are deeply grateful to the Colorado Correctional System for taking such good care and welcoming us into their world with PoeJazz. It was a moving and memorable experience for audience and artist alike at the Lookout Mountain Correctional Facility this past August. And also, our gratitude goes out to all our Veterans in Veterans Upward Bound for all they've done for our Country and for having PoeJazz play their Awards Banquet each year. One of the highlights of our playing Season is The Star Spangled Banner for you to begin the evening. It's the real deal. God bless all Veterans, and keep up the great work, Veterans Upward Bound.
