Album Notes

This recording is the result of Armando, Lee and I jamming for fun in Armando's Cedar Street, Santa Monica livingroom. Our goal was to document some of that majic, keep it real, keep it organic. A special thanks to Rich Eames, Katise Buckingham, and Robert Fernandez for their extraordinary contributions, Tom Ribbecke for building true works of art that play and sound great.

Pete Snell grew up on the east coast playing in clubs in the tri-state area. He studied with Linc Chamberland, Pat Martino, Joe Pass, and at The Manhattan School of Music before heading to Los Angeles in the '80's. There he signed with Capitol Records and Bruce Lundvall to do two albums with his band In Vitro. Next, he toured with Lyle Lovett and his Large Band, Sam Phillips, and many others while doing session work in Los Angeles for many T.V. shows, films, and solo artists.
Currently, Pete is producing artists, composing for film and television, doing session work and playing in the jazz clubs in the L.A. area along with promoting this new CD.
