for photos and video and a Link to our 'Jack Groves' Track for our LOUISIANA
STORIES Album-in-Progres.

It's been very good year for Rivers Answer Moons.  Since the Week ending Saturday, April 6, 2024, the band has placed four Tracks among the Top-20
Jazz releases across North America and Europe, according to Charts by the PlayMPE platform and service, based on responses from more than 3100 Radio-Stations and other Media.

We're grateful! We're delighted that strangers like what we do! The Track
"Get Your JAM On!" with guest singer ERICA FALLS was #5 and #7 in Streams for those first two PlayMPE Weeks of April, while our tribute to the great musician and eternal improviser and educator KIDD JORDAN registered #15 and then #12 in worldwide Streams. Click on the Front-Covers below to listen.
