We've caught a break from playing while I'm visiting suprisingly sunny Seattle. Unsurprisingly, the trip has had plenty of
spaceships and
jazz.

Thanks to everybody who came to our SxSW show! We love ya. We'll put some pics up soon. You can check out Ian's blog-tastic coverage of the festival
over here at the Houston Chronicle.
In the mean time, tune in to
Radio Mike ... here's what he has to say about DT:
DROP TRIO, our Favorite spaceship Jazz from Texas, is Always Incredible and we doubt there is another like them. Their arrangements and Improvisations are tight enough to warrant an impeccably produced Live CD. And it is indeed very good. They’ve already produced at Least two Other CDs as well so the word Prolific comes to mind. Indeed, you should Listen and Listen often.
Thanks Mike.
Tune in everybody, he picks up some great new music.
We're gearing up for sxsw next week. Should be a blast! Here's a cool flyer done by one of our fans -
Rock! Ready for some spaceship jazz?
Tonight we'll be at
Ruta Maya (3601 South Congress Avenue) in Austin with our good friends (and my favorite Austin band)
Grass and
Audio Flava.
