It’s been a busy winter season, and there’s only a couple of more opportunities to catch the Sunnyland Jazz Band at Bonnie Jean’s before the January hibernation (actually, going down to Florida to visit family).

As a holiday treat of sorts (for me), I’m including a photo taken this past Friday of the trio with a special guest – our friend and one of my early banjo inspirations, Harry Gustafson.  As you can read in my bio section, Harry was part of the first band I was ever part of , The Singing Banjos, and was also the person who introduced my dad and I to the Long Island Banjo Society.  Harry’s still playing and singing in his 80’s – even jamming with his son at a night spot down in North Carolina!  Go Harry!!
