Interview Tuesday + Exclusive Free Bonus Track from "Roads & Codes"

Hello folks, one quick announcement and then a free bonus download!First, the announcement: I'm going to be on the Bay Area's great jazz station, KCSM Jazz 91, this week, talking with Alisa Clancy about Roads & Codes (and playing some tunes from the album, too). Local folks can listen at 91.1 on their FM dial, and out-of-towners can stream live here. Tune in to hear me run my mouth off about any number of things!WHAT: Ian Carey interview on Morning Cup of Jazz with Alisa ClancyWHERE: 91.1 FM or kcsm.orgWHEN: Tuesday, February 19, 9amNext, just as a bonus to everyone out there in internet-land, here's a free bonus track from my new album, Roads & Codes. It's an alternate take of my Samurai movie-inspired attempt at a blues Joe Henderson would've enjoyed playing, "Nemuri Kyoshiro."During mixing, I went back and forth about a million times about which take I preferred--the fast and (very) loose first take, or the slightly more relaxed and swinging second take. After picking the brains of many of my musical friends, I settled on the first take. I then promptly changed my mind after last-minute but convincing feedback from another friend--"I know you think your solo was better on the first take, but you're wrong, and here's why"--and put the second one on the album.But, I thought, why not throw Take 1 out there as a bonus? Then people can make up their own minds! So here it is!Ian Carey Quintet+1: Nemuri Kyoshiro (Alt. Take)(w/ Adam Shulman, piano; Ian Carey, trumpet; Fred Randolph, bass; Evan Francis, tenor saxophone; Kasey Knudsen, alto saxophone; Jon Arkin, drums. Recorded 6/5/12 at Studio Trilogy, San Francisco, Dan Feiszli, engineer.)Don't forget, Roads & Codes drops this Tuesday on radio & stores, with CD release show Thursday, Feb. 21 at the Sound Room in Oakland!
