From the show:

Making Music, Making Sense

2011-06-30T22:48:00.000-07:00

A friendship with a future, that's what we had. All of us making music, all of us booking, promoting, producing -- at some point we were going to join forces. And then we did, and it was awesome, so here we are.

Here's some press about our jazz showcase at Moore's Lounge on June 3, 2011.

...and a little about who we are.

Much, much more to come.

With much, much love,

Neva, Trish and Nick

We are FUM.
