Candy Jacket Jazz Band presents Nate Ketner

A little #GoPro vid from the recording session. This song is entitled "Don't Trip!" and is the first track off our new album available on all online music merchants! While sitting at the piano coming up with the melody to this song, my son (4 yrs old) had set up a bunch of his toys around and behind the piano bench. He then proceeded to put on a pair of my shoes and navigate the elaborate toy landscape like a giant walking through a city. I found myself giving him the side-eye every so often and thinking "Don't Trip...". Thankfully, he didn't but guess who did? HA! Album is finally out as of 4/4! Pick it up at: Bandcamp https://candyjacketjazzband.bandcamp.com CD Baby https://www.cdbaby.com/cd/candyjacketjazzband2 iTunes (Download only) https://geo.itunes.apple.com/us/album/candy-jacket-jazz-band/id1221650452?mt=1&app=music #candyjacket #candyjacketjazzband #swing #jazz #losangeles #lindyhop #balboa

Here's a video from the routine Dax Orion Hock and I showcased at Camp Hollywood last month. We got 2nd! I will be honest, I really wish it was cleaner but we h...ad a week n a half to prepare and I was in the middle of anxiety/insomnia attacks and my son was just starting his 6-week recovery of walking pneumonia so hey, it turned out alright!
