This week, Simon Dunson stops by Mandolin Mondays to play a slammin' version of a classic jazz standard on his cedar top Girouard mandolin (serial #4).
Although Simon is local to Chapel Hill, NC he spent two years as Interlochen Arts Academy's first mandolin major and is currently studying at NEC as their first jazz performance major on mandolin. Also, Simon keeps an active youtube channel himself--you can check out his channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7Fj...
Here's Simon with a word about the piece in this video, "Here's my arrangement of Ain't Misbehavin'. It's tune by Fats Waller that has become a jazz standard and been recorded by everyone from Sonny Stitt to Willie Nelson."
Connect with Simon at the following address for more information about his music, performance schedule, and private lessons: simondunson45@gmail.com
And as always, tune in next week for more Mandolin Mondays! Until then...
Happy Picking!
