Greetings jazz aficionados, I hope all is well with you on this fab Friday! Funny thing, time truly flies when you’re having fun. With that said, the summer heat making its way through the peaks and valleys of the southern states all the way to the west coast and just think spring hasn’t even made its debut yet. As the music continues to blossom, I just wanted to take a moment to thank you guys for making “The Urban Flux” part of your jazz journey. Without you and the music this journey in this crazy world of blogdom would not be worth traveling! Until next time, be safe, blessed and do have a great weekend. —Rob Young | Urban Flux Media
