Memorial Day Gig for Memory Care

I did a fun Memorial Day gig at a local memory care unit, and I played a bunch of patriotic songs. I was able to play an Armed Forces medley to honor the men and women who died for our country, and did classics like America the Beautiful and Battle Hymn of the Republic.

I was also able to play some standards from the Great American Songbook. Some new standards I’ve been working on are: Pennies from Heaven and Embraceable You.
