OUTRO SOLOIST: Rob Reich


This episode's outro soloist is the wonderful bay area
pianist/accordionist Rob Reich. Rob performs all over the place
with a bunch of different groups, and is a total pleasure to see
play. He's got a bunch of albums you can check out and
contributes to an array of interesting projects (Live silent-film
scores! Circus music!) and experiments. Find more at his website,
