Jazz is ALIVE and KICKING


Contrary to nay sayers and doomsday prediction, Jazz music is still ALIVE and hopefully packs a mean kick in the A&*. The new sound of Wahijuara, led by guitarist Junji Lerma and the rest of the guys gave an aural wall of sound (?) last May 30 at the gallery.
Wahijuara (meaning Soul Sauce) current line up includes: Francis de Veyra on bass, Arwin Gonzaga on drums/percussions and 'horny guys' (guys on the horns ie: trumpet and saxs) Richie Gonzaga and Anthony Morris


The group played their first and only set which was followed by Radio Active Sago Project. Early that day I read somewhere that the group was already disbanding. This prompted me to make a panic call to Junji for a confirmation. Only to find out it was just one of those nasty rumors. Ahhh
