Hello music lovers, Here's a "holiday" update on what I've been up to. No gigs due to COVID, but I am teaching music online more than ever before. Sometime within the next month or two, I will launch a brand new website with updates and additions, including a "Lessons" page to help boost my studio presence. I have at least 3 or more CDs worth of music to record, but no funds to make that happen. When I get the money, I plan to release a Trio/Quartet with all original music and some vocals called "Greg Chako and The Organ-ized Trio, with special guest Brooks Giles." I have a duet recording ready called, "Bass First - Chamber Jazz" which will feature my collaborator on the upright bass, Michael Sharfe. I still have lots of unsold CDs around currently available directly from me - buy the gift that keeps on giving - and help artists like me survive during these times. All the best - stay safe and sound my friends!
