I really loved this, I just can't get tired of those sweet violin harmonies. Great flow throughout, congratulations!

(also, I must add that the sound quality is impressive for the conditions you recorded it on... I'm getting myself a Zoom H4 soon as well, and can't wait!)

Thanks for your comments! Hope you enjoy your Zoom H4 - it's so easy to use!!

Hi, Maria here to answer two questions that keep coming up...

1. Yes, my sleeves are unironed.

2. The siren sound is from an ambulance parked in front of Rockwood Music Hall. At the time, I thought it would be cool to duet with it and work it into the improv...

Thanks for checking out the vids!!!

Blazin solo there Maria. I'd love the chance to get to jam with you at some point... maybe if we're in NYC at the same time? As for a few things I've been up to, look for some of the more recent Saint John the Gambler videos on youtube. Hope everything is well with you, take it easy!
