SUMMERTIME - SUBLIME COVER - TROMBONE CAM: With The Hourglass Cats at W Scottsdale on 3/14/2020

As some of you may know, during February and March I visited my hometown of Phoenix, AZ. During my time in Arizona, I filmed many of my gigs with a special Trombone Cam view! I am looking forward to going through all of this footage and sharing these video on my YouTube channel. I was thinking of making one long compilation video from all my AZ gigs. But, as I was going through, I realized there was just way too much footage! Summertime is the first video like this I have uploaded to YouTube. I am not going to upload every single song, but maybe a few, or maybe a compilation per gig or per band? Let me know down in the comments if you would like to see more videos like this on my channel!

This cover version of Summertime by Sublime was performed with The Hourglass Cats. The Hourglass Cats are an original rock/reggae band that also play cover sets throughout the Phoenix area. Of course, this one is always a crowd pleaser! Summertime is one of Sublime's most famous songs, and who doesn't love that unmistakable melodic quote written by George Gershwin for Porgy and Bess. The Hourglass Cats cover many Sublime songs - but this one is my favorite one to play! This video was filmed at the W Hotel in Scottsdale on March 14, 2020. I have played there many times, and I love the vibe. Especially those lights!

Also, when I was in AZ, I went into the studio to record on The Hourglass Cats’ new album! I am super excited for that to come out and of course I will share it here when it does!

REMAINING ARIZONA SHOWS!

My time in my hometown of Phoenix, Arizona is coming to an end! The announcement on where I’m heading next is coming soon!

Above are the remaining shows I will be playing at while I am in Arizona. I have been playing with The Hourglass Cats for years and playing with this band is always a part of my Arizona homecoming! I am so happy I got to play as many shows as I did with The Hourglass Cats while I was in town. I also got to spend a few days in the studio recording trombone tracks for their new album. I will definitely keep you all updated when that comes out!

I am especially excited to play the gig at The Ostrich Festival in Chandler because I have never been to that before. I hope I get to see some ostriches!!! The headliner at The Ostrich festival on 3/14 is Blues Traveler. 3/13 is 98 Degrees (damn, missed it by a day, haha)! Event info for The Ostrich Festival can be found here: https://ostrichfestival.com/

On 3/6 I will be playing with Rockin’ Chair at the Lost Leaf. This is only my second time playing with this band, but they are awesome! They have a super unique sound. Rockin’ Chair is led by Gene Moran who is an excellent songwriter and lyricist. An oh, he sounds like Bob Dylan, haha! I’m looking forward to playing with them again.

Here are some Rockin’ Chair links if you want to check them out:

I am also excited to be playing at The Lost Leaf. The Lost Leaf is an amazing bar and live music venue in the historic neighborhood of Roosevelt Row. It is one of my favorite bars in the city and when you watch live music there you truly get a sense of what Phoenix “is”. AND to top it all off, it’s First Friday! First Friday is a huge event that happens, well every first Friday, in downtown Phoenix. The streets are lined with art, the galleries are open, and you can hear live music coming from everywhere. I definitely recommend checking out First Fridays if you’re ever in Phoenix at the beginning of a month!

Well, that’s it for now. If you would like more details about any of the shows listed above please send me a DM on Instagram or Twitter @lisaliztrombone. Hope to see you out!

BACK IN PHOENIX!

As you might have seen in my last blog post about playing with The Hourglass Cats, I am back in Phoenix, AZ! I will be in the Phoenix area until March 17th. I will be available for gigs, lessons and clinics/masterclasses. For booking please contact me at lisa.lizanec@gmail.com.

Phoenix, AZ is my hometown, so I am very excited to be back for an extended period of time. I would love to see as many people as possible while I’m back and of course, play some great music with old friends.

So far, I have performances and appearances lined up with The Hourglass Cats, TAD Management, and Brave Musician Podcast. More news and updates to come soon. I hope to hear from you!
