From Matt: “Major life update: I’m moving to New York City in August to pursue new & exciting opportunities in jazz, teaching, and musical theatre! After a week of interviews and apartment hunting, I’ve accepted a job offer at “Keys To Success,” a piano school in Brooklyn, and will find a sublet in Manhattan while I continue to look for a permanent place. Those of you that know me, know that I’ve dreamed of living in NYC since I was a little kid. Now that dream is finally coming true!”

Matt & Susan’s song “Silence” was written in response to the need to speak out for justice. We must not keep silent when our voices should be heard.

Or just say, “Siri, play ‘Silence’ by Just a Touch of Jazz”!

We entered our song “Silence” into the NPR Tiny Desk Contest. You will find it on the Tiny Desk website with all the other entries. You can also find it on our “Just a Touch of Jazz” YouTube channel.
