Welcome to The West Coast Jazz of George Kahn
GIVE THE GIFT OF MUSIC TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW!
With everyone tightening their belts this year, I can't think of a better or more affordable gift to give your friends than the gift of great jazz music — specifically the brand new CD COVER UP! This collection of 11 tracks includes arrangements of some classic rock songs (by Cream, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, John Mayer and others) as well as originals in the West Coast “Cool Jazz” style.
The album has been a hit on jazz radio, being played on over 140 jazz stations across the country, and has garnered excellent reviews. Produced by Brian Bromberg, it features George Kahn on piano, Alex Acuna on drums, Brian Bromberg on bass and other great LA jazz cats.
If you have not heard it yet, now is the time to check it out. If you already have a copy, now is your chance to buy the CD at wholesale prices if you buy in quantity — and I will pay the postage to send them to you!

GEORGE KAHN — COVER UP!
and Brian Bromberg — Producer — COVER UP!
George kicks off his WEST COAST JAZZ WORLD TOUR 2008-2009 with a performance at the Hearst Castle, August 2008
Uncover One of the Greatest Secrets in 21st Century Jazz!
For years I have wanted to record jazz versions of the songs
I grew up with rather than the usual jazz "standards". To pull
this off, the band and arrangements need to be cool AND hip, so
I enlisted the help of my friend Brian Bromberg as bassist and
producer. We put together an all-star band with Alex Acuña (from
Weather Report) on drums and percussion and other top LA session
musicians; Justo Almario on sax, John Fumo on trumpet, and Pat Kelley
on guitar. Together, we bring a fresh spin to songs by Cream, The
Beatles, Pink Floyd, John Mayer and some jazz standards, as well as
originals that I think will become standards of their own.
In addition,
Courtney Lemmon joins in on a rollicking version of Bill Wither's "Use Me".
The album comes with an 8 page photo booklet by Mark Berndt in the style
of the classic Blue Note recordings of the late 50's. The first time my
wife heard the album, she said it made her feel like she was fresh out
of college again (in a good way).
