The August issue of the International Musician features a profile of former Navy musician, MUCM Manny Cepeda.
The IM is no fan mag; it's the official journal of the American Federation of Musicians. When you get featured here, you're doing things right.
Manny, the article points out, is busy as a San Diego composer, performer and educator and band leader. This, of course, is nothing new. During his 31 years of service, Manny led the Steel Band and the U.S. Navy Show Band.
Here's a short clip of Manny Cepeda (in the white hat) performing at Harrah's.
Frank Mullen's very unofficial source of poop, skinny and bitching for present and former U.S. Navy Musicians.

BZ to Manny, glad to see him gigging in this economy.
Not sure how I feel about 3 guys playing along with sequences running on a laptop, though....
Equally curious why the AFM is OK with that. Aren't there any card-carrying piano, bass, and horn players in San Diego?
"Che Cole" Listen dude, steel pans were NOT invented in Poro Riho!
MORE "GARAGE KEYS!"
